Powder coating is a durable and aesthetic finishing process used to protect and elevate your SendCutSend projects.
Powder coating gives your laser and waterjet cut parts a bold, long-lasting finish and protective layer which provides corrosion, oxidation, and damage resistance.
Manufacturing leaders, businesses, product designers, and makers love powder coating because it provides one of the best protective coatings available, it’s durable, and it looks great. Powder coated sheet metal can last an average of 20 years in direct UV exposure before needing to be redone. Even if you’re making parts for the indoors, sometimes you want a little color added to your project.
Powder coating is one of the strongest finishes available. It’s impact, chemical, and weather resistant. To prove just how durable it is, we put some of our powder coated materials to the test.
If a material can hold an electrostatic charge and withstand heat, it can be powder coated. SendCutSend currently offers several grades of aluminum, steel, and stainless steel for our in house powder coating.
Certain metals, like mild steel and aluminum, take on a patina or will rust after a few years outdoors in the elements. Powder coating creates a barrier of protection against corrosion and oxidation of metals.
