Re: Seeking information about anodization supplies



At the risk of being tedious:
Wouldn't aluminum clips soon be anodized, and unconductive?

Teflon jars would be expensive, polycarbonate would be cheap:
is the life cost really so much lower for teflon?

I am having difficulty finding information about some supplies I would
like to have for anodizing aluminum. I am looking for aluminum clips and
teflon containers.

The aluminum clips should have flat contact surfaces, unlike alligator
clips. We currently use copper clips, but the copper is etched by the
acid solutions we use.

The teflon containers should be cylindrical, approximately 8 cm in
diameter and 10 cm tall, and should have screw top lids.

If anyone knows where I can find either or both of these items, I would be
most appreciative if you would contact me off list.
