01
ISO 9227 · ASTM B117
Salt spray chamber
Assesses zinc coatings in an accelerated atmosphere at 35 °C with 5 % NaCl, recording the hours until white or red corrosion appears.
Accelerated corrosion · Metrology · Traceability
Quality Control
Accelerated corrosion testing and thickness metrology that turn every normative requirement into verifiable evidence.
VALIDATION
We certify the coating’s effectiveness before delivery and installation on site.
Every batch is validated through specific protocols that account for the type of coating and its operating service conditions.
02
ISO 16701 · ASTM G85
Cyclic corrosion
We evaluate the real-world performance of coatings through combined cycles of salinity, humidity, drying and freezing.
03
Automated logging
Thermal cure monitoring
Monitors the baking of zinc and aluminium flake, typically holding 300–320 °C for the validated time to ensure polymerisation and stress relief.
04
ASTM F1470 reference
Sustained load and IHE
Bolt samples harder than 39 HRC are held at 75–80 % of the minimum tensile strength for at least 200 hours. The batch is accepted only if every sample finishes without cracks or fractures.
05
Go / No-Go ring gauges
Thread dimensional verification
Go/No-Go gauging after curing confirms smooth assembly, with no interference from coating build-up and no alteration of the K factor.
Magnetic gauges verify thickness without destroying the part. Visual and dimensional inspection completes the record to ensure coverage, uniformity, thread fit and batch traceability.
