Abstract

Factors affecting selection Freedom from corrosion is usually obtained in three basic ways: (1) by isolation of the environment from the metal with, for example, plastic or nickel coatings, (2) by using zinc on steel which is essentially cathodic protection and (3) by the use of materials which are intrinsically corrosion resistant. Many classes of metallic coating, paint, enamel, anodizing and other methods of producing a resistant oxide film, are all relevant to fastener technology providing the coat is mechanically able to do the job required and is of sufficient thickness and continuity to resist the environment under consideration.
