ELECTROPOLYSEAL® III

ELECTROPOLYSEAL III uses a conventional zinc phosphate base, which is applied via the barrel immersion process. The POWERCRON® XL cationic electrocoat product is then applied via bulk processing electrolytically to the fastener. After rinsing, a torque modified post dip is then applied to the part and it is cured. The film build of this finish is 0.6-0.8 mils (or 15-20 microns).

ELECTROPOLYSEAL® IV

ELECTROPOLYSEAL IV is a unique finish of one coat of zinc phosphate base. The finish is cured at this point. This base coat of zinc-rich is then topcoated with cationic electrocoat in a bulk application. A torque modified post dip is used after the electrocoat, and both finishes are cured concurrently. The film build of the basecoat is 0.3-0.4 mils or 7.5-10 microns, and the total film build is 0.6-0.8 mils or (15-20 microns). ELECTROPOLYSEAL IV uses a dip/spin basecoat, which may make recess fill possible.  Key Features and Benefits Tough Improved corrosion resistance Automotive Industry approved products No hydrogen embrittlement Versatile Torque tension controlled finishes Multiple color offerings Finish solutions for many specifications Increased productivity Precise Minimal product handling No recess head fill No thread fill Reduced rejects Environmentally Friendly All chrome and lead-free finishes Dry to touch finishes

ELECTROPOLYSEAL® V

ELECTROPOLYSEAL V is a combination of a plated substrate and cationic electrocoat. The electrocoat film can be either epoxy or acrylic based. The parts are electroplated and passivated. The electrocoat is applied in bulk. A torque modified post dip can be added to this finish when torque tension characteristics are critical. Film build on the plated finish is 0.3-0.4 mils (or 7.5-10 microns). Total film build is 0.6-0.8 mils or (15-20 microns).
