THE PREMIER METAL FINISH YOUR BUSINESS HAS BEEN LOOKING FOR

WHY BLACK OXIDE

When it comes to selecting a metal finish, black oxide stands out as the top choice for businesses seeking a perfect balance of visual appeal, durability, and cost-effectiveness. At GSO-Metals, we specialize in providing exceptional black oxide metal treatment services tailored to the unique needs of the various industries we serve. Discover why the benefits of black oxide make it the premier metal finish for your business.

Hot Black Oxide delivers a striking and professional black finish setting your products apart from competitors. This visually appealing finish captures the attention and elevates the appearance and value of your products.

The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) found that black oxide treatment provides corrosion resistance for approximately 144 hours during the salt spray test. This impressive result showcases the durability black oxide adds to products, making it a cost-effective solution for enhancing corrosion resistance. Our Process meets MIL-DTL-13924D Class 1 and AMS 2485L Standards.

Black Oxide treatment is highly regarded for its ability to minimize glare and light reflection better than many other metal coatings and bare metal surfaces, making it an ideal choice for various applications. Black Oxide outperforms a majority of alternative metal coatings and untreated surfaces in reducing glare and reflection

The porous characteristics of Black Oxide coating provide a unique advantage in many applications by promoting better lubrication and adherence of oils and other lubricants. This improved lubrication leads to reduced wear and enhanced performance, especially in moving parts, ensuring the product lifespan, reliability, and optimal functionality of your products.

Black oxide treatment is highly valued for its dimensional stability on steel parts, ensuring tight precision tolerances and preserving the original tolerances of precision components. This ensures products meet exact specifications, enhancing overall quality and performance.

Black oxide treatment is known as a more environmentally friendly metal finishing process compared to many alternatives. This process makes use of less harmful chemicals and allows for easier waste management, making it a responsible and sustainable choice for businesses looking to minimize their environmental impact.
