Manganese Phosphate Plating
This process involves plating ferrous metals with manganese phosphate by immersion. The resulting coating has many benefits:
- Reduces friction and wear on moving parts
- Corrosion Resistance
Manganese Phosphate Plating Capabilities
- Type of Plating
- Manganese Phosphate Plating
- Features
- Improves life of component or product by reducing coefficient of friction and wear between moving parts. Also provides corrosion resistance.
- Process Approvals
- For Manganese Phosphate Plating we adhere to:
- MIL-DTL-16232 Type M (Replaces DOD-P-16232): Phosphate Coating, Heavy, Manganese or Zinc Base

- Material
- Manganese Phosphate
- Base Materials Worked
- This specification focuses on manganese phosphate plating of all ferrous metals (Iron and Steel).
- Plating Type
- Type M = Manganese Phosphate Base
- Plating Class
- The Manganese Phosphate plating should be of the following classes:
- Class 1 = Supplementary preservative treatment or coating, as specified
- Class 2 = Supplementary treatment with lubricating oil conforming MIL-PRF-16173, Grade 3 or MIL-PRF-3150
- Class 3 = No supplementary treatment
- Class 4 = Chemically converted (may be dyed to color as specified) With no supplementary coating or coating as specified
- Automation
- All manganese phosphate plating processes are performed manually to ensure the proper care is given to each step.
- Additional Operations
- We
offer several additional operations that may be required for your
product: Cleaning, Magnetic Particle Inspection (NDT), Penetrant
Inspection (NDT), Hardness & Conductivity Testing (NDT), Dry
Film/Solid Film Lubricants and Primer & Topcoat Painting.
Please let us know if you require any of these additional services.
- Quality Control
- All plating processes are subject to our rigorous Quality Assurance process. All work is reviewed and inspected to be in compliance with the specification (Process Approval requested).
