ISO 10074:2021(E)
Introduction
Hard anodizing is an electrolytic treatment which results in the formation of a hard and usually thick
coating of alumina used primarily for engineering purposes.
Hard anodizing can be applied to cast or wrought aluminium and aluminium alloys; however,
alloys containing more than 5 % copper and/or 8 % silicon and die casting alloys require special
anodizing procedures. To obtain optimum microhardness, wear resistance or low surface roughness
characteristics, low contents of alloy are selected.
Unless otherwise specified, articles are anodized after all heat-treatment, machining, welding, forming
and perforating operations. The best results are achieved on machined surfaces. Sharp edges are
machined to a radius of at least 10 times the intended thickness to avoid “burning” and/or spalling.
Hard anodizing will usually result in a dimensional increase on each surface equal to about 50 % of the
coating thickness. The dimensions of the component prior to anodizing will allow for this, if necessary.
The thickness is generally within the range of 25 μm to 150 μm. Low thickness (up to 25 μm) is
sometimes used in a variety of applications, such as splines and threads. Normal thickness (50 μm
to 80 μm) is used for wear or insulation requirements. High thickness (150 μm) is used for repairing
purposes, but thick coatings tend to be softer in outer regions. Very hard coatings reduce the fatigue
strength. This phenomenon can be minimized by applying shot peening before hard anodizing (see H.6),
by reducing thickness and/or by sealing. Hard anodizing tends to increase surface roughness. This can
be limited with low alloy contents and/or mechanical finishing.
Hard anodic oxidation coatings are mainly used to obtain the following:
— resistance to wear through abrasion or erosion;
— electrical insulation;
— thermal insulation;
— build-up (to repair parts out of tolerance on machining or worn parts);
— resistance to corrosion (when sealed).

4 Material classification
The properties and characteristics of hard anodic oxidation coatings are significantly affected by both
the alloy and the method of production.
Consequently, for the purposes of this document, materials are classified into five alloy groupings as
follows.
— Class 1: all wrought alloys except those in Class 2.
— Class 2 (a): alloys of the 2 000 series and any other alloys that contain more than 5 % copper.
— Class 2 (b): alloys of the 5 000 series containing 2 % or more magnesium and alloys of the 7 000
series.
— Class 3 (a): casting alloys with less than 2 % copper and/or 8 % silicon.
— Class 3 (b): other casting alloys.
Information to be supplied by the customer to the anodizer shall be in accordance with Annex A.
5 Appearance
The significant surface shall be completely anodized. The visual appearance shall be substantially
uniform. There shall be no spalling, blistering or powdery (burnt) areas. Visual examination shall be a
lot acceptance test.
Crazing or microcracks shall not normally be a reason for rejection.
6 Thickness
Thickness measurements shall be made on the significant surfaces, but not within 5 mm of contact
(jigging) marks, nor in the immediate neighbourhood of a sharp edge.
Measurement shall be made using either the non-destructive eddy current method described in
ISO 2360 or the destructive microscopical method described in ISO 1463. In the case of a dispute, the
microscopical method (ISO 1463) shall be used.
Measurement of thickness or, where relevant, final dimensions shall be dealt with in a lot acceptance
test.
7 Surface density
The surface density (coating mass per unit area), when measured in accordance with ISO 2106 on
unsealed anodic oxidation coatings with a nominal thickness of 50 μm ± 5 μm, shall have the minimum
values given in Table 1.
If the coating thickness is not 50 μm, the surface density shall be corrected proportionately.
WARNING — A method specified in ISO 2106 requires the use of a reagent containing
chromium(VI). Chromium(VI) is toxic and its solutions are hazardous to the environment and
severely hazardous to waters.

8 Resistance to wear/abrasion
8.1 General
The resistance to wear/abrasion shall be measured on unsealed anodic oxidation coatings (see NOTE).
Due to good correlation achieved with other properties, resistance to wear/abrasion shall be tested in
accordance with B.1, using the abrasive wheel wear test method described in ISO 8251.
NOTE Resistance to abrasion can be measured on sealed anodic oxidation coatings but hydrothermal sealing
and/or dyeing can reduce the resistance to abrasion/wear by over 50 %.
When the abrasive wheel wear test method is not appropriate (especially on some curved surfaces),
resistance to wear/abrasion shall be tested in accordance with B.2, using the abrasive jet test method
described in ISO 8251. This test gives an average for the total coating thickness.
The abrasive wheel wear test method assesses the resistance to abrasive wear. The abrasive jet
test method assesses the resistance to erosive wear (erosion). Thus, the results are not necessarily
comparable.
The Taber abrasion test method in accordance with B.3 may only be used when specified.
8.2 Abrasive wheel wear test method
The resistance to wear/abrasion shall be determined by the measurement of loss in coating thickness
or loss in coating mass. When determined in accordance with B.1, using the abrasive wheel test
method described in ISO 8251, the final value shall be an average of at least three tests using a load of
19,6 N ± 0,5 N and grade P240 silicon carbide paper (as described in ISO 6344-1). The loss in coating
thickness or in coating mass shall exclude any loss due to the pretest abrasion.
The acceptance values shall be in accordance with Table 2. The standard specimen, in accordance with
Annex C, shall be tested each day, under the same conditions as those used for the test specimen. When
the loss in coating thickness is used, each thickness value shall be the average of 10 readings in the test
area.
The time between hard anodizing and abrasion testing shall be at least 24 h. During this period, the test
specimens shall be stored in the test environment.
