describes a thin, bright blue-passivated zinc coating intended for light-duty, decorative, or interior use. It is not a corrosion-resistant finish by modern standards. When updating specifications, replace it with ISO 2081 Fe/Zn 8, blue passivation and explicitly state required corrosion resistance if higher performance is needed. It is not a corrosion-resistant finish by modern standards
The code refers to a specific industrial standard for electroplated zinc coatings applied to iron or steel components. It is a critical specification used in manufacturing to ensure parts have adequate corrosion protection and specific aesthetic qualities. Breaking Down the Specification It is a critical specification used in manufacturing
: After the zinc layer is set, the part receives a "b" treatment—a chromate conversion coating
This specification is very common for:
