- Parts: fittings, valves, frits, custom parts with complex topography (inside and out) largest vessel: 1ft. ID x 4ft. cylinder w/ 10in. opening (30.5 x 122cm, 25.4cm opening). If your part exceeds the dimensions listed, please contact us. For odd shaped parts please submit a drawing with detailed dimensions.
- Tubing: 0.004in. to 0.5in. ID (0.10–12.7mm); continuous lengths to 2000+ ft. / 600+ meters*

What can't we treat?
- aluminum (heat-dependent), copper, brass, gold- or silver-plated components, magnesium, nickel (we can treat most high-performance alloys).

2-Touch™ Program
The Restek Performance Coatings Division has developed the 2-Touch™ Program to ensure that customers are kept up
to date with progress of their parts during the treatment process. The first touch will be contact on receipt of your
job, to discuss questions or anticipate concerns that could arise during processing, and to give you a completion date.
The second touch will be at the completion of the treatment process, to notify you of the results and give you an option
to update return shipment information.
Many of our current customers have found this service very helpful, and we will continue to adapt the 2-Touch™
Program to meet the needs of all customers.
Other highlights of the 2-Touch™ Program:
- Each job is tracked and recorded, using a unique lot number. Digital photos are taken of all items in each job at arrival and prior to return shipment. These records will be available to you, should you ever have need of them.
- Each item is individually packaged for maximum protection.
- Treatment certifications are supplied for each job.
