Automotive & EV Components
Bushes, spacers, fasteners, brackets, turned parts and corrosion-sensitive assemblies requiring zinc flake, Xylan or combined Zn-Ni + Xylan systems.
Industries Served
BMF supports industrial customers where coating, blasting, phosphating, passivation, corrosion resistance, friction behaviour, surface preparation or salt spray performance matter.
Industrial Coverage
Coating and preparation services across application-led sectors.
Coating performance depends on incoming surface condition, preparation route, coating build, curing, handling, packaging and actual operating environment.
Fasteners & Turned Parts
Bulk and precision components where coating mass, thread fitment, torque/friction behaviour and salt spray performance must be reviewed.
Fabrication & Sheet Metal
Frames, brackets, clamps, plates, covers and fabricated assemblies requiring blasting, coating, phosphating or passivation support.
Pumps, Valves & Process Equipment
Parts exposed to water, vapour, chemicals, abrasion, friction or handling-intensive environments where coating selection matters.
Electrical & Switchgear
Hardware, housings, fabricated components and assemblies requiring corrosion-resistant coating, blasting, passivation or sister-concern plating support.
Stainless Steel Components
Welded, machined and fabricated stainless parts requiring glass bead blasting, pickling, passivation or surface restoration.
Non-Ferrous Components
Selected aluminium, brass, copper and suitable alloy components requiring controlled glass bead blasting or finish refinement.
Defence / Precision Engineering
Selected ferrous and precision parts requiring manganese phosphating, blasting, coating trials or controlled surface preparation.
Machinery & Equipment
Engineering parts, housings, brackets, threaded components and assemblies requiring dry-film coating, blasting or phosphate coating.
Export-Oriented Components
Parts requiring consistent coating route, SST support, documentation, RoHS-conscious support or customer-specific standards.
Research, Trials & New Development
Support for zinc flake trials, Xylan trials, coating comparisons, salt spray evaluation and approval-batch handholding.
Industrial Maintenance
Surface preparation, coating, passivation and restoration support for selected maintenance or replacement components.
Application Mapping
Typical process fit by industry requirement.
Final process selection is made from the drawing, material, surface condition, coating requirement, performance target and assembly use.
| Requirement | Common industries | Relevant BMF capabilities | Key review points |
|---|---|---|---|
| High corrosion-resistance coating | Automotive, EV, fasteners, export components | Zinc flake coating by dip-spin or spray route | Coating mass, film build, pretreatment, curing, SST target, threads and packaging. |
| Low-friction / release behaviour | Threaded components, machinery, pumps, process equipment | Xylan 1070 / PTFE; Zn-Ni + Xylan through GEPW + BMF | Base finish, coating thickness, curing, torque/friction target, masking and operating environment. |
| Surface cleaning and preparation | Fabrication, castings, steel parts, coating pretreatment | M.S. and S.S. media shot blasting | Media selection, rust/scale condition, contamination risk, surface profile and downstream route. |
| Controlled finish / stainless restoration | Stainless parts, non-ferrous parts, fabricated assemblies | Glass bead blasting, pickling and passivation | Material grade, finish expectation, heat tint, weld condition and dimensional sensitivity. |
| Oil retention / dark phosphate | Engineering, defence-style parts, wear/contact components | Manganese phosphating | Steel condition, coating weight, surface preparation, oil/post-treatment and application. |
