Aerospace Approved Finishing Processes
High-performance cleaning and plating chemistries engineered for aerospace manufacturing environments where reliability, corrosion protection, and specification compliance are critical.
Ronatec aerospace finishing systems support precision parts manufacturing through advanced cleaning, electroless nickel plating, and specialty additives designed for demanding production environments.
Processes support or meet major aerospace standards including AMS, MIL-C, ASTM, and Boeing BAC specifications, delivering proven corrosion resistance, adhesion, and process stability.
AquaVantage 815 GD
Immersion & Ultrasonic Detergent
AquaVantage® 815 GD is an aqueous ultrasonic cleaner with an unrivaled combination of highly effective parts cleaning, broad material compatibility, extensive industry approvals, and recyclability – all produced in a safe formulation.
AquaVantage® 815 GD is the aerospace cleaner of choice in most immersion and ultrasonic parts cleaning applications.
- Mildly alkaline solution cavitates in ultrasonic baths with unparalleled performance, providing a water-break-free surface
- Ideal for use during the manufacturing or rebuild of components in immersion parts washers, mildly-agitated or ultrasonic tank cleaning processes
- Non-corrosive and will not stain metals
- Free rinsing permits improved adhesion
- In-process corrosion control
- RoHS-compliant
EN1000
Ronatec’s RoHS compliant EN1000 coating offers workhorse performance while providing extraordinary corrosion protection, exceptional wear resistance and excellent solderability at minimum plate thickness.
| EN 1000 meets end use requirements of AMS 2404, Mil-C-26074, Mil-C-38999, and Boeing BAC 5728, DPS 9.67 and ASTM-B-733 and is also listed on the Boeing BSA deviation list. |
COLCAD 100
COLCAD 100 brightener for cyanide cadmium plating solutions, produces brilliant fine-grained cadmium deposits over a wide current density range. Significantly improve the throwing power and high current density covering power of the cadmium plating solution.
Ronatec Water Immersion Systems
Aerospace facilities operating under Nadcap that are providing passivation services, are required are to have an approved water immersion system. This means the rinse process itself must be controlled, documented, and repeatable.
To address this challenge, we developed the Ronatec Water Immersion System – designed specifically for aerospace passivation operations. This unique system automatically cycles parts through controlled wet/dry immersion intervals while monitoring DI water quality and maintaining process documentation.
This equipment is available only from Ronatec.

Chemicals
- Electroless Nickel (low, mid, high phos)
- Anodizing systems (including chromic alternatives)
- Passivation and conversion coatings
- Zinc-nickel and cad replacement systems
- PTFE/composite coatings for wear and release
- Cleaners, activators, and pretreatment chemistry
Most of this is focused on corrosion resistance, uniformity, and meeting aerospace specs. We spend a lot of time helping customers hit Nadcap and internal OEM requirements.
Equipment
- Full plating lines (EN, anodize, zinc-nickel)
- Micro-boilers and heat exchanger systems
- Ventilation systems (ACGIH style design)
- Filtration and solution maintenance systems
- Chemical feed and control systems
- Waste treatment and water recycling
Aerospace work is all about consistency and control, so we design systems that are stable and repeatable.
