Aircooled6racer Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hello: Has anyone Ion Bonded any aluminum magwells or parts? I have a STI stainless 2011 magwell that was Ion Bonded. It is slick and doesn't show any wear at all. Let me know. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loves2Shoot Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) We are testing nickel plating and hard chrome on the aluminum and then applying the Ion Bond CRC. Watch my dealers section (Springer Precision) for updates and photos, as we should have a bunch of it done over the next 3 weeks. The main concern I have is the softness of the aluminum, but we are running different combos and then doing some torture testing. ps. You would want to coat the mags too, or you would have the metal from the mags deposited on the well. The friction coefficient of steel on steel is about .7, CRC on CRC is less than .2.
