Abstract
A prefluxed, flux retaining aluminum-based component is provided comprising a solidified coating layer having flux particles embedded into the coating layer. A method for producing such components comprises steps of applying a molten metallic coating to an aluminum-based component, maintaining the coating in a molten state, driving flux particles against the coating, and cooling the component to solidify the coating and thereby fix the particles firmly in the solidified coating.
