Plating, anodizing, passivation and coatings for San Antonio manufacturers, run at two Texas plants under one AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 quality system. ITAR registered and DFARS compliant, with aerospace and defense specifications held to revision.
San Antonio carries one of the deepest aerospace maintenance and manufacturing bases in Texas, alongside automotive assembly and its supply chain, medical device work and a broad machine shop community. Those markets have one thing in common at the finishing step: the specification is not negotiable, and the certification has to survive an audit.
MIL-A-8625 Type II and Type III, MIL-DTL-5541 Type I and Type II, AMS-QQ-P-416 cadmium, AMS 2417 zinc-nickel, AMS 2404 electroless nickel, AMS 2700 passivation and QQ-S-365 silver, certified to the revision your print invokes.
Electroplating, anodizing and passivation at Gleco Plating, plus powder coating, liquid coating and Cerakote through our coatings division in Rowlett. A part needing plate-then-paint does not need two suppliers and two sets of paperwork.
Rowlett and McAllen run under the same AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 registration. If a process is faster at one plant this month, the part moves without changing your approved supplier.
Send the print. If the callout is wrong, obsolete or impossible on your substrate, you will hear that before the parts arrive rather than after the first article fails.
Our team works in English and Spanish, which matters when your engineers, buyers and drivers do too. Send the print in whichever language your team works in.
San Antonio sits roughly between our two plants, which is unusual and useful. Rowlett is a straight run up I-35 and I-45; McAllen is the same road south. That means a San Antonio buyer is not locked to one plant's queue, and processes that only run at one location are still available on a single purchase order with a single certificate.
Some processes run only at Rowlett and some only at McAllen. Send the print and we will tell you which plant runs it, what that does to lead time, and whether splitting a job across both makes sense.
Whichever one runs the process. Alkaline zinc, citric passivation, matte tin, dry film lube and zinc phosphate run at Rowlett; sulfamate nickel, bright silver and several others run at McAllen. Most common finishes run at both. Send the print and we will route it.
Yes. Both plants operate under the same AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 registration, and Gleco is ITAR registered and DFARS compliant.
Yes. Electroplating, anodizing and passivation run at Gleco Plating; powder coating, liquid coating and Cerakote run at Gleco Paint and Powder in Rowlett. One purchase order, one point of contact, one set of certifications.
Yes. Prototype and first-article quantities as well as production releases. Tell us the release pattern and we will quote it that way.
A Certificate of Conformance referencing the specification and revision your purchase order invokes. Where your specification calls for a certified test result from an accredited laboratory, we run it through an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited lab and supply the certificate with the parts.
Two Texas plants under one AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 quality system. Same processes, same certifications, same purchase order.
Tell us the substrate, the specification and the quantity. We will confirm the process, the plant it runs in and a real lead time.
