Materials & Finishes — Engineered for Electronics
Precision Materials for Demanding Applications
Select from a range of metals and plastics, each offering distinct advantages for strength, weight, conductivity, and cost. Our expertise helps you choose the optimal material for your part's function and environment.
| Material Class & Visual | Common Grades | Key Characteristics | Primary Electronics Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
Aluminum Alloys | 6061-T6, 7075-T651 (Anodizing-ready) | Excellent strength-to-weight ratio, good thermal conductivity. Easily machined to tight tolerances. | Device enclosures, internal brackets, heat sinks, front panels, wearable device frames. |
Stainless Steel | 304, 316, 17-4PH (SGS reports available) | Superior corrosion resistance, high strength and hardness. Suitable for passivation. | Precision fasteners, shafts, outdoor equipment components, EMI shielding parts, food-contact components. |
Engineering Plastics | PC (Polycarbonate), PC/ABS, PA66 (Nylon), POM | Lightweight, excellent electrical insulation, design flexibility for complex geometries and integrated features. | Durable housings, buttons, internal gears, snap-fit structures, insulating components, prototype parts. |
Surface Finishes To Enhance Functionality & Aesthetics
The right finish protects your parts and defines their final look. Our processes ensure consistent, high-quality results that meet both performance specifications and visual standards.
| Finish Process & Visual | Primary Purpose & Value |
|---|---|
Anodizing | Enhances durability and aesthetics. Increases surface hardness, wear and corrosion resistance. Provides a wide range of color options for aluminum parts. |
Powder Coating | Provides a thick, protective layer with rich texture. Creates a tough, impact and chemical resistant coating. Available in numerous colors and finishes (matte, texture). |
Electroless Nickel Plating | Delivers uniform corrosion resistance and wear protection. Covers complex geometries evenly without electricity. Offers good solderability and a consistent, shiny appearance. |
Brushing & Polishing | Creates distinctive metal textures. Brushing provides a uniform matte, linear grain. Polishing produces a high-gloss, mirror-like finish that enhances premium appearance. |
Engineer's Note:
Surface finishes add microns to part dimensions. Our manufacturing process and DFM analysis account for this to ensure your finished parts meet exact assembly specifications.
