Sterling Armor® is turning the stainless steel and plated ball world upside down.  An inexpensive alternative for both load bearing and non-load applications.  Our exclusive patented manufacturing process controls time, temperature and gaseous composition defusing corrosion protection into the microstructure of the steel creating a superior scuff and wear resistant surface.  Sterling Armor is unaffected by UV exposure, and is ideal for caustic environments.  It provides a complete and uniform barrier capable of withstanding 24, 48, or 96 hour salt fog testing.

TYPICAL USES

  • Cosmetics (nail polish, lip gloss, eye liner)
  • Automotive switches
  • Seat belts
  • Quick disconnect fittings
  • Pump switches
