Mechanical Galvanizing of Diamond Point Staples for the Industrial & Utility Staples Industry

As leading mechanical plating specialists, we at Dynaburr offer high quality mechanical galvanizing services for various industries and applications. In the project highlighted here, we were commissioned by a customer in the utility staples industry to provide a mechanical galvanizing treatment for their diamond point staples. This part is a prime example of one better suited to mechanical galvanizing than hot dip galvanizing. Our large barrel tanks were loaded with the 1-½” x ⅜” x 0.148” sized staples, along with a mixture of zinc metal powder, water, glass impact beads, and our proprietary chemical mixture. This process upheld the ASTM B695-04 Class 50 Type 1 standard for coating with zinc. All ingredients were tumbled until the cold weld was complete, holding a minimum thickness of 0.002” and maximum thickness of 0.0035”. Finished staples exhibited a silver color.

After plating, the staples were water polished and spin dried. Thorough in-process visual testing and post production quality inspection were provided to ensure appropriate plating thickness and adhesion. 1500 industrial staples were treated and shipped to the customer after a 2 – 3 day turnaround time.
