Hard Chrome Plating

Hard chrome plating is used to electro deposit a chromium layer that is extremely hard and corrosion resistant. Used extensively for hydraulics and extreme wear conditions.

Hard chrome plating usually calls for deposit thickness in the range of 10 microns up to 1000 microns but larger deposits can be achieved. The Hard Chrome Deposit will have a low coefficient of friction and will impart exceptional wear characteristics to the substrate on which it is plated.

The major use of Hard Chrome Plating is to provide coatings with superior wear, abrasion and or corrosion resistance.

Hard Chrome Plating can also be used to rebuild or salvage worn parts such as Hydraulic Ram Rods, Pneumatic Rods, Shock Absorbers….etc, and mismachined items.
