What anodize coating thickness should I specify for my product?

What anodize coating thickness should I specify for my product?

You can specify a range of coating thickness from 0.00001" to 0.005" based on what your product is to be used for and how you want it to look. In general, thicker coatings are used for products to be used outside or in corrosive environments, and thinner coatings are used for parts to be used in interior applications. When anodized products are to be used out of doors, anodized film thickness is usually specified at 0.000400" minimum or 0.000700" minimum. Parts used in automotive applications are usually specified at 0.000300". Parts used in interior applications are usually specified between 0.000100" and 0.000350". There are some applications where coating thickness of 0.00001" is used. Hardcoat anodizing, commonly used in high abrasion applications, may range from .001" to .005" in thickness.
