Downey Company that enable us to coat metal parts from the size of a 0.5&#8243; threaded nut to a 30 ft. steel structure. We can also provide a partial E-coat on parts that only require a certain portion of the part to be coated. We can coat in six colors: Black, Green, Blue, Red, Gray or Medium ASA 33 Gray and offer iron or zinc posphate along with specialty pre-treatment on all systems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-93 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/bldowney.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/ecoatimage_right.jpg\" alt=\"ecoatimage_right\" width=\"326\" height=\"230\" \/><span class=\"style24\">Plant processing capacities are virtually\u00a0limitless. The smaller lines are able to produce\u00a0over 500,000 finished parts per day. A variety of shapes and sizes can be coated to your\u00a0specifications. Our six E-coat processing\u00a0lines are computer-controlled for uniform\u00a0coverage and reliability. This will provide\u00a0a durable, single coat protective coating\u00a0for multi-metal stampings and fabrications.\u00a0Since E-coat is applied in a thin 0.5 to\u00a01.8 mil film, all bends and crevices, as well as edges, can be coated on the inside\u00a0and over the entire<\/span><span class=\"style24\">\u00a0surface.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5>E-<span class=\"style21\"><span class=\"style12\">coating<\/span>(Electrodeposition\/Electrocoating)<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Electrocoating (E-coat) is a process in which electrically charged particles are deposited out of a water suspension to coat a conductive part. During the electrocoat process, paint is applied to a part to produce a uniform film thickness, that is regulated by the amount of voltage applied. The deposition is self-limiting and slows down as the applied coating electrically insulates the part. E-coat solids deposit initially in the areas closest to the counter electrode. As these areas become insulated to current, solids are deposited in more recessed bare metal areas to provide complete coverage. This phenomenon is known as throwing power and is a critical aspect of the electrocoat process. E-coat is a technology used worldwide to achieve high-quality, low-cost\u00a0 finishes at a level of efficiency and environmental compliance no other finishing method approaches. The performance advantages, along with reduced finishing costs, have made it a growing technology that will continue long into the future as new uses and technologies are developed.<\/p>\n<p>For your convenience B.L.
