Benefits HARD CHROME INDUSTRIAL PLATING
Parts that perform in high friction, corrosive, galling, seizing or high temperature environments increase their productivity and longevity when a chrome coating is applied. By extending the life of your parts and increasing productivity, you SAVE MONEY with chrome plated components.
Hard Chrome is the most unique and diverse metal finish coating in the industry.
Its properties include:

 
» High Hardness—Rockwell 72 C
 
» Wear resistance
 
» Lowest coefficient of friction
 
» High melting point (1907 degrees C)
 
» Corrosion resistance
 
Customers can expect to see longer run times, increased efficiency and lower energy consumption with industrial chrome plated components running in their equipment.
