AMS 2700 Passivation

Aerospace-specification passivation services in full compliance with AMS 2700 for corrosion-resistant steels used in flight-critical and high-reliability components.

Specification Overview

AMS 2700 is an aerospace specification that defines the chemical treatments used to passivate corrosion-resistant steels. It ensures removal of free iron, enhances surface oxide formation, and verifies corrosion resistance using standardized test methods.

  • Methods include Nitric 1–4 and Citric 1–3
  • Applicable to 300, 400 series, PH, and martensitic stainless steels
  • Post-passivation tests include salt spray and copper sulfate
  • Used in aerospace, medical, and precision mechanical assemblies
