We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Corrosion Protection",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Choosing the right bearing coating from
Schaeffler (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Dr Steve Lacey, Schaeffler UK Engineering Manager, discusses the importance of selecting the right coating or corrosion-resistant material for rolling bearings operating in harsh
environments".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Metal chain resists corrosion from
Tsubakimoto UK: "Tsubaki NEP chain uses a combination of three layers of surface coating, with a highly resistant base layer that bonds a harder wear-resistant coating onto the chain bushes".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Britool
concerning its Britool socketry range
- take a look at Socketry range expands
which says: "Britool's socketry range has received another 20 boxed socket sets, 15 sets of sockets on clip rails and five extension bar sets".
Take a look also at the news release from Birchwood Casey, Liquid quickly blackens iron and steel,
as well as Pneumatic cylinder tolerates wash down from Bosch Rexroth - Pneumatics,
and Bearing steel offers corrosion resistance from Schaeffler (UK).
