Phosphate - Manganese

DOD-P-16232 Type M

Manganese phosphate is used to improve the corrosion resistance and the lubricity of steel. It is typically oiled or sprayed with a dry film lubricant. It is a somewhat grainy surface which is best applied on a sandblasted surface. The grain is much more even on a sandblasted surface.

The amount of phosphate applied is typically specified by coating weight and not thickness. This is because the coating is soft and grainy and it can be difficult to know when to stop turning the micrometer. A heavy manganese coating can add several thousandths of an inch to each surface.
