Optimal Materials for Auto Components

We leverage extensive materials science know-how to select the right stock material considering factors like strength, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, weight, manufacturability etc.
  • Aluminum Alloys

    Our aluminum capabilities span from conventional grades like A356, A357, A380, B390 to advanced alloys for specialized mechanical or temperature needs.

    We also frequently use wrought alloys such as 6061, 6082 where machining/forming is involved. Our engineering teams offer materials recommendation and substitution support.

  • Magnesium & Titanium Alloys

    We support the vehicle light-weighting trend through magnesium alloys like AZ91D, AM60B, ZK60A and advanced aluminum grades.

    For extreme environments in niche racing applications, we also offer titanium alloys like Ti-6Al-4V. Beyond metals, we provide engineering plastics and composites.  

Surface Treatment

We offer a wide range of coatings and surface treatments to enhance aesthetics, environmental/wear resistance, electrical/thermal properties, friction and more.

Image Name Description
Anodizing We perform both decorative and hard anodizing on aluminum parts to achieve tailored optical properties plus increased hardness, abrasion resistance and corrosion protection meeting automotive needs.
Powder Coating Our automated powder coating facilities provide high consistency in achieving desired color, gloss, texture and coating thickness. This also protects against corrosion, chemicals and mechanical impacts.
Plating We offer high quality electroplated coatings including zinc, nickel, copper, chromium and more with functional benefits like wear protection besides aesthetics. Has important uses in connectors.
PVD Coatings For specialized applications like gearbox components, we employ high hardness, low-friction ceramic coatings of titanium nitride (TiN), zirconium nitride (ZrN) and others using physical vapor deposition.
Painting Where needed, we customize cross-functional compatible multi-layer painting for excellent color consistency, luster and extended durability to environmental factors.
Passivation For stainless steel automotive parts, passivation improves corrosion resistance through the formation of a protective surface layer rich in chromium oxides. We offer citric and nitric acid passivation processes.
