What is Anodised Aluminium? Anodising is an electrochemical process that converts a metal surface into a decorative, durable, corrosion-resistant, anodic oxide finish and can be used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of the metal. The image is then printed using special dye inks, which are absorbed by this anodic layer to become part of the actual aluminium. The anodic dye, penetrating deep into the aluminium (15 microns), produces labels that are much more resistant to abrasion than would be the case with surface printed inks The anodised coating is hard, durable, will never
peel, and, under normal conditions, will never wear through. Advantages of Aluminium
Uses of Aluminium Anodised aluminium is perfect to use for:
Consecutive Numbering and Barcodes etc.
Mounting Mounting
of nameplates is usually by screw or rivet holes that are pressed into the
metal plates. For thicker gauge plates, mounting is sometimes achieved by welding
directly onto units at the point of manufacture.Alternatively, or in combination with the above,
adhesives can be applied to the back of the nameplates. A large range of
adhesive options are available to suit adhesion to almost any substrate, for
example other metals, plastic and powder coated surfaces. Most of the adhesives
specified are suitable for outdoor and wet applications.
