DeKalb Metal Finishing specializes in RoHS and S.V.H.C. compliant Alkaline Zinc and Zinc Alloy plating, Aquence™ Coatings, E-Coat, Chromate Conversion, Passivation and more.

All of our plating lines are alkaline based due to the superior capabilities of alkaline baths. When compared to acid zinc and zinc alloy plating, our alkaline products provide first-rate brightness, superior plate distribution between high and low current density areas, improved coverage inside of tubes, increased impact resistance, and significantly better throwing power, even inside fittings.

Additionally, we specialize in, and exclusively offer, trivalent passivates. DeKalb Metal Finishing has been a hexavalent-free plating company since 2007.
