It shall be applicable whenever refe

21、renced. 2 Purpose of process To improve: the resistance to abrasive and erosive wear; the electrical insulation; the thermal insulation. To use the dimensional increase produced by the process for repair of parts out of tolerance on machining or worn in service (special case). 3 Influence and limita

22、tions of process use The anodizing produces an increase: of the dimensions by about50% of the coating thickness; of the surface roughness (factor of1,3 to3,0, if expressed inRa). Anodizing results in a reduction of the fatigue strength which may reach60%. Shot peening before anodizing reduces the ex

23、tent of this reduction. The best results as regards the properties of the anodized layer are obtained on machined surfaces; no grinding before anodizing. Round off sharp corners. Not recommended for use on parts or items where there is a risk of retention of corrosive substances. Avoid anodizing bot

24、h faces on areas with a thicknessk2mm. The thickness of the anodized layer is in general: 304m to1204m for alloys of category1; 304m to604m for alloys of category2. Restrict thickness to254m on the splines and threads. 4 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated re
