I recently bought some coated deck screws which were dacronized.
There are no sites on the Web which tell what that process is.

Is anyone here familiar with the process?

Good point. Ida thunk someone who sells the coated products would
have had SOMETHING on them, but everyone has the same boring,
non-informative sentence regarding dacronizing. Whoever is in charge
of marketing this process is an idiot for not letting the info out.

is a semi-interesting paper on sintering.

Addendum: I was poring over the SAE site and found links to 42v stuff.
Curious, I viewed a few pages, then checked their book selections. You
guys may find the pricing on SAE paperbacks interesting, and you'll
want to be sitting down when you view this.

When I saw 'Dacronizing' I wondered what use on earth a Dupont trademark
polyester fibre would have as a coating system for metal :-)
http://www.encyclopedia.com/html/D/Dacron.asp

I suspect you want to google 'dacrotizing'

One notable link is the Dacral company
http://www.dacral.com/gb/pages/accueil/accueil.asp

Hope that helps.

If the paperbacks are $3,500, I wonder how much the bloody hardcovers
cost.

Have you ever priced any of the ASME pressure vessel code books? Loose
leaf, and similar cost. They're real proud of their publications. They
also seem intent on keeping the information out of the hands of the common
man. Price certainly does that.

I had the same misgivings when I saw the spelling.

OK, now you do one for "dacronizing" to see my meager results.

Yes, thanks. DacroMet appears to be the method used on my
screws. They look as if they were sprayed with a fine aluminum
coating, though they were probably dipped and spun. It's an
extremely smooth and nice coating; beats the hell out of hot-dip
galv.
