The addition of an annealing furnace at SILICON HQ is very exciting for us, because thanks to this investment we no longer need to sub-contract this service. This video explains what Bright Solution Annealing does to alloys and gives an inside look on the furnace itself.
The performance of Refractory Anchors can be drastically enhanced by Bright Solution Annealing.
This treatment will reduce the corrosion rate on the surface of the metal whilst also limiting the rate of embrittlement within the metal.
