A zinc-flake coating is a layer consisting of zinc and aluminum flakes. It ensures a resistance of up to 720 hours<\/strong> in the salt spray test (DIN EN ISO 9227) with a 5% salt content.

Phosphatizing is a widely used treatment, in which a so-called conversion layer of firmly adhering metal phosphates is formed by a chemical reaction. Although this method offers only medium corrosion protection, it does extend advantages in friction reduction. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
