Asterion is pleased to announce that Harley-Davidson has approved TECHNIBRITE™ alkaline and acid zinc plating systems for providing optimum corrosion protection on the company’s legendary motorcycles.
Specifically, the TECHNIBRITE systems have met the stringent specifications of Harley-Davidson’s “Zinc Plate and Seal per ESPEC 805-050,” and “Zinc Plate per ESPEC 805-051” for use on powertrain components.
The approved zinc plating systems include the use of TECHNIBRITE AZ 130 alkaline, non-cyanide zinc or TECHNIBRITE ZN 200 chloride acid zinc, followed by TECHNICOAT™ ZnBl 360 trivalent passivate. TECHNIGUARD™ F 108 sealant is employed to meet the ESPEC150 specification. The rigorous testing was completed at Harley-Davidson Powertrain Operation in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.
“We are honored to have earned the trust of Harley-Davidson," says Blair Vandivier, President and CEO of Asterion. "The work by our sales and technical teams, in partnership with our valued distributor Hydrite Chemical Company, demonstrates our commitment to ‘combining high tech with high touch,’ to Harley-Davidson and all our customers to maximize product performance.”
Each Harley-Davidson approved process imparts a silver-white (clear) finish.
