Common questions about Heat Treatment (Hardening / Tempering / Induction / Vacuum)
It depends on the substrate and environment. Zinc plating with a clear or yellow passivate is the workhorse for steel parts in mild environments; for harsher conditions, look at Dacromet, hot-dip galvanising or specialist coatings.
Anodising builds an oxide layer on aluminium (decorative or hard-wearing); powder coating is a sprayed and cured polymer film. They serve different needs - anodising is conductive-safe, powder coating offers a wider colour range.
Many UK machinists and fabricators have preferred finishing partners. You can post a project for the finished part and let the supplier subcontract, or separate them if you have a nominated finisher.
