Powder Coating Services
Colour, texture and fit, specified together.
Plan powder coating for metal enclosures, brackets and fabricated parts. Share the exposure conditions, colour reference and assembly drawing so pretreatment, coating system and masking can be reviewed as one specification.
Confidential files. Optional NDA available.
Metal panels, covers and brackets where colour and a protective organic film are required.
Heat-sensitive assemblies, tight interfaces and deep recesses need review. Coating colour does not establish outdoor durability.
What this process does
Powder coating applies dry coating material to a prepared surface and cures it into a film. Resin choice, preparation and cure conditions determine suitability for the part and its operating environment.
Choose the route from your requirements.
Use these points to prepare an enquiry. The selected process, material compatibility and acceptance criteria should be confirmed for your drawing.
On smaller screens, scroll the table horizontally.
| Your requirement | What to specify | What to review |
|---|---|---|
| Exterior service | Provide UV, weather and exposure requirements. | Select a suitable powder system; colour alone is not a weathering specification. |
| Interior equipment | Provide handling, cleaning and appearance requirements. | Compare the coating system with the actual use conditions. |
| Close-fitting assemblies | Mark slots, threaded holes and mating faces. | Allow for film build or define masking. |
| Cosmetic surfaces | Identify visible faces and acceptable rack locations. | Agree colour, gloss, texture and sample acceptance together. |

Protect the features that make the part work.
Mark the surfaces that carry function, fit and appearance. A clear drawing helps separate essential requirements from unnecessary processing.
Preparation first
Weld scale, contamination and the substrate condition affect adhesion. State incoming condition and any existing coating that may need removal.
Cure and assemblies
Identify inserts, adhesives, seals and prior heat treatment. The selected curing schedule must be compatible with the complete part.
Edges and recesses
Sharp edges and enclosed geometry affect coverage. Review access, hanging and touch-up expectations before release.
Agree the evidence before production.
Inspection should answer the requirements on your order. Define the method and acceptance criteria when a characteristic is important to the application.
- Powder system and pretreatment identified
- Dry film thickness and measurement locations agreed
- Colour, gloss and cosmetic sample approved
- Adhesion and exposure testing included only when specified
Testing and documentation are confirmed in the quotation. A finish name or reference image does not establish certification, performance or compliance.
From drawing to an agreed finish.
Send the part context
Share the drawing, material, quantity and operating environment. Identify cosmetic and functional surfaces.
Review the process
Resolve preparation, access, masking and the sequence with machining or other finishing operations.
Confirm acceptance
Agree samples, measurements and documentation. Record the approved drawing revision and open requirements.
Release the order
Confirm the quoted route, schedule and packing requirements before work starts.
Can threaded holes and grounding points stay uncoated?
Identify them on the drawing and request masking. Agree the mask boundary and permitted edge condition, then inspect the interfaces after coating.
What should I send for a quotation?
Send the drawing revision, material grade, quantity and substrate, welds and existing surface condition, indoor or outdoor exposure and chemicals. Mark the required surfaces and any acceptance tests. Include your target date and shipping destination.
Can I send parts that are already manufactured?
State that the parts are customer-supplied and include their current condition, existing coatings and dimensions. Acceptance, incoming inspection and the finishing route need confirmation before shipment.
Can you provide a specific inspection report?
List the required characteristics, test methods, sample quantity and report format with the enquiry. The quotation should confirm the agreed inspection scope; additional tests are not implied by the service name.
What affects price and lead time?
Part size, quantity, incoming condition, preparation, masking, finish requirements and inspection scope all affect the route. Share the complete specification so cost and schedule can be confirmed for the order.
