Phosphoric Acid Anodizing

The Ellcott Division of TIGHITCO is a key supplier of subcontract Phosphoric Acid Anodizing for the aerospace industry. PAA is known as the optimum method of preparing aluminum surfaces for adhesive bonding. Our tank sizes are 3.5' wide, 5.0' deep, and 12.0' long, which combined with our improved racking system, makes it possible to handle the vast majority of detail components requiring the PAA process. Our environmentally controlled adhesive priming and curing facility supplements the chemical processing line. In-house laboratory capabilities are available for analysis and process control testing.
