Dense Chrome Plating

Chrome Plated Parts

Why should you consider chrome plating?

Hard chrome and thin dense chrome is our main process. We boast of eight high-capacity chrome tanks that allow us to accommodate both large items and high-quantity orders.

Hard chromium or hard chrome, also known as industrial or engineered chrome plating is a fine grain coating with an extremely low coefficient of friction properties. As a result, chrome plating offers a 5x to 10x increase in wear life of critical parts. It's ideal for protecting against abrasion and wear and has superior corrosion resistance.

benefits

provides a protective coating

Ideal for use on hydraulic or pneumatic parts, shafts and gears

reduces wear, friction + corrosion

Protects solenoids, shafts, cams, gears, threads and other component surfaces

improves component durability

Provides corrosion protection, wear resistance and reduces torque


conforms to industry standards:

  • AMS-QQ-C-320
  • AMS2460

Nickel Plating

Nickel Plated Parts

We process sulfamate nickel plating class 1 and class 2 with dull or satin finishes that are applied for corrosion protection. The nickel plating process can be applied as an underplate for chrome for the ultimate in corrosion protection.

  • AMS-QQ-N-290
  • AMS2403
  • ASTM B 689

Electropolish

Electropolish Parts



Electropolishing is used to improve the surface finish by incorporating an electrochemical process that removes material from metallic parts. It's the reverse of the electroplating process which removes imperfections and impurities on the metal surface. It's used to polish, passivate and deburr metal parts.
