Given that sulphuric hard III anodizing is only .001 to .003" thick then I'd have thought not. It is also fairly easy to compromise, so in a mechanical assembly you would be hard pressed to know how good the insulator was or how long it would remain so after the rigours of use (vibration etc.). Better to stick with SIL pad type materials or non-hydroscopic "Fish card" type insulators.

The related spec describing this process is MIL- A-8625F. Please advise at your earliest convenience.
