Powder coating temperatures are OK for suspension parts ?

I'm dropping off the rear training arms to the powder coaters and got to wondering about the brazed-in bushing sleeves. the oven temp is OK for them right ?

Cheers

Jeff

Should be just fine.
Powdercoat is usually cured at around 400-420 F or less. Brazing is done at around 1100 F

Now if you got any rubber bits like bushes or whatever attached to the items being coated, they'll definitely suffer.
