Specs for hardcoat Anodizing
2001
Q. I am into blackened anodizing, can you please inform me with the American hardcoat standards, MIL-A-8625 / MIL-PRF-8625 [on DLA] type III and AMS2469 (wear test) and also the European hardcoat standards, ISO 10074 and BS 5599 as soon as possible.
Thanks.

A. Hi, Gerald. We've linked your inquiry to sources of those standards to help you buy them; with the exception of the Mil spec, these are all copyrighted specifications and cannot be copied for you -- according to international copyright law you must buy your own copies. Good luck.
Regards,

A. MIL-A-8625 / MIL-PRF-8625 [on DLA]F Type III is recognized and used all over the world for hardcoat anodizing. A survey of International Hardcoat Anodizing Association (IHAA) members found ISO 10074 as the only other specification widely used outside of the United States.
