SAE International (SAE)<\/a> is an association and standards developing organization for engineering professionals in various industries. SAE has more than 128,000 engineers and related technical experts in the aerospace, automotive and commercial-vehicle sectors. It is their mission to \u201cadvance mobility knowledge and solutions for the benefit of humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 1998, SAE wrote the AMS 2451 standard for the general requirements of brush plating. As Mil-Std 865 is now inactive for new designs, AMS 2451C \u2013 revised in 2011 \u2013 serves as its replacement. While similar to AMS 2451C, Mil-Std-865 was more specific. Mil-Std-865 covers the process and materials for the brush plating of various metals and alloys on ferrous alloys, aluminum alloys, copper alloys, nickel alloys and corrosion-resistant steel, etc. But an advantage to the new AMS 2451C standard is within the specification some of the most used and accepted tank standards \u2013 such as AMS 2403, 2423, 2424, Mil-Std QQ-P-416 & Mil-Std QQ-S-365 \u2013 are listed and referenced. Technicians now have the opportunity to perform brush plating to several of the well-known AMS and Mil-Std tank specifications.<\/p>\n

Brush plating<\/a> is a portable surface finishing method used to enhance, repair, and refurbish localized areas on manufactured components. The SIFCO Process\u00ae is the leading portable method of brush plating localized areas without the use of an immersion tank. It is primarily used for enhancing surfaces on OEM components, permanent repairs and salvaging worn or mis-machined parts.<\/p>\n
