Blackening of Steel




Sir,
I am interested in doing black passivation color on hardened steel parts, kindly advise.

Hi, Kapil. You can't passivate steel like you passivate stainless steel. But it would be possible to black oxide coat the steel parts. See our FAQ: Black Oxide & Cold Blackening for a quick intro.
