Standard Finishes (Bearing Shields)

Notes for Material Fit

  • Tinplate / Galvanized / Electro-Galvanized already have metallic coatings; usually pair with oil or E-coat rather than re-plating.

  • CR Steel is the best candidate for Electro-Zinc / Phosphate / Zinc-Nickel.

  • Stainless typically uses Passivation; additional coatings are rarely necessary unless for cosmetic matching.
