Phosphating is a proven process in industrial surface technology in which metal surfaces are treated with aqueous phosphate solutions. This creates a firmly adhering conversion layer of metal phosphates, which serves as a reliable basis for corrosion protection and further processing steps.
Phosphating is primarily used for steel, but is also suitable for galvanized or cadmium-plated metal surfaces and aluminium. Typical areas of application include corrosion protection, adhesion promotion for coatings, friction and wear reduction and electrical insulation.
PERKUTE cleaning systems allow phosphating to be carried out precisely and economically. The processes enable consistently high quality and clean results in industry and workshops. Phosphating has been established in various industries for many years under different names such as bonderizing or parkerizing.
