Type II & Type III Aluminium Anodising
Controlled Anodising for Corrosion, Hardness, and Surface Durability
Fukar provides anodising services for aluminium components requiring improved corrosion resistance, hardness, and surface durability. We support both Type II sulphuric anodising and Type III hard anodising based on application requirements.
Our process is managed under ISO 9001:2015 quality systems with controlled pretreatment, anodising, and sealing steps. Fukar supports industrial programs in electronics, automotive, and precision engineering sectors.
Anodising is often selected where electrical insulation, improved wear performance, and stable corrosion behaviour are required for aluminium parts.
Performance Highlights
Why Engineers Specify Anodising
Type II & Type III Capability
Supports both general-purpose anodising and hard anodising based on performance requirements.
Improved Corrosion Resistance
Creates a stable oxide layer that improves corrosion performance on aluminium components.
Enhanced Surface Hardness
Hard anodising improves wear resistance for components exposed to abrasion and repeated contact.
Technical Reference
Anodising Specification Snapshot
Anodising selection depends on alloy, required oxide thickness, dye/seal requirements, and operating environment. Requirements are confirmed during technical review before production.
Our team can align process output to your drawing notes and quality documentation requirements.

How It Works
Anodising Process Flow
1. Pre-cleaning
Degreasing and cleaning remove oils and contaminants before anodising.
2. Etching & Desmut
Surface conditioning prepares aluminium for consistent oxide formation.
3. Anodising
Controlled anodising forms oxide layer thickness to specification.
4. Sealing
Anodised parts are sealed to enhance corrosion resistance and surface stability.
5. Rinse & Dry
Components are rinsed and dried under controlled handling procedures.
6. Final QA
Final checks for thickness, appearance, and process compliance records.
Common Questions
Anodising FAQ
Answers to common technical and application questions from engineering and procurement teams.
Ask a Technical QuestionWhat is anodising used for?
Anodising is used to improve corrosion resistance, hardness, and durability of aluminium components.
What is the difference between Type II and Type III anodising?
Type II is typically used for standard corrosion protection and decorative applications, while Type III hard anodising provides thicker, more wear-resistant layers.
What standard is commonly referenced for anodising?
MIL-A-8625F is commonly referenced for aluminium anodising process requirements.
Can anodising improve paint adhesion?
Yes. Anodising can improve paint and topcoat adhesion on aluminium surfaces when process and sealing are controlled properly.
Does Fukar provide anodising services in Shah Alam?
Yes. Fukar provides anodising services from Shah Alam under ISO 9001:2015 quality systems and controlled process parameters.
