Hard Chrome Plating Suppliers in Chennai
Hard chrome is an electroplated surface finish that is also known as industrial hard chrome, functional chrome, and engineering chrome. When designing machine components, engineers often combine a base metal, or substrate, with a surface finish to achieve the quality, efficiency, and reliability desired in their product. Of the numerous hard coating surface finishes available, industrial hard chrome plating continues to be one of the most popular.
What Is Hard Chrome Plating?
Hard chrome plating demonstrates excellent hardness and lubricity, and is the premier engineering choice to reduce friction, minimize wear and prevent galling. These characteristics are applicable for critical engineering applications, including: machine tool cutting surfaces, cylinder bores, strut rods, crankshafts and hydraulic shafts. Hard chrome is also applied to molds because of its low surface energy and resultant release properties
What is Chrome Plating?
Other than its functional advantages of wear, temperature, and corrosion resistance, hard chrome plating provides many advantages when used by manufacturers looking for a coating solution on large scale production jobs. With the right setup, applying a hard chrome finish is quick, easy, and efficient, making turn times faster. Our investment in engineering proprietary precision plating processes allows us to offer a lower cost solution to our customers and cover those hard-to-plate areas.
