Hard Chrome Plating

HARD CHROME PLATING:

Industrial or Engineering hard chrome is an electroplated coating providing excellent wear, hardness and corrosion protection. Plating can be provided in bright, dull or matte finishes. Deposit thickness can be as little as .00002” or as high as .060”. Thicker deposits often require a post plating process. These deposits can be cylindrically or surface ground and/or polished to your specifications. An additional post plating process can require hydrogen embrittlement relief baking, which can be done in-house. Hard chrome can be plated on a wide range of different base materials.
