Excellent Passivation Treatment (EP Treatment) that dramatically improves the corrosion resistance of SUS410!
To cover the corrosion resistance of SUS410, passivation treatment is essential; however, our company has developed and processed a "Super Passivation Treatment (SP Treatment)" that significantly improves corrosion resistance (target: 500 hours of head rusting). We have now developed an "Excellent Passivation Treatment (EP Treatment)" that dramatically enhances corrosion resistance even further (target: 1000 hours of head rusting).

basic information
Passivation is a type of rust prevention treatment for stainless steel, known in Japanese as "passivation treatment." Stainless steel is known for its resistance to rust, which is due to the natural formation of an oxide film on its surface that prevents further contact (oxidation) with oxygen. This is the reason why stainless steel is less prone to rust. This oxide film is different from the iron oxide found on ordinary iron; it is chromium oxide formed by the combination of chromium and oxygen in stainless steel, and this chromium oxide serves as a protective film. While this chromium oxide film can form naturally, it is very thin (around 20Å) and can easily be damaged by external factors, leading to rust formation in those areas. When this film is forcibly generated using nitric acid-based oxidizers, a denser and more robust film is created. This process of forcibly generating the film is known as passivation treatment.

Company information
In 1927, our company started as a manufacturing and sales business focused on hardware products such as cotter pins, and in 1957, we began mass production as a pioneer of stainless steel screws. The frontier spirit that lives on at Maruemu Seisakusho has led to the creation of core technologies based on our history and the accumulation of skills, including "product development of new materials, material processing, and fastening technology."
