• Plastic Industry- Extrusion Screws, Dies and Moulds,etc.......

Our customers demand quality & we are proud to be associated with them and their success.

Hard Chrome Plating is a process whereby a wear resistant layer of chromium is deposited on  a substrate surface.With its low coefficient of friction,high hardness,moderate corrosion resistance,the process finds wide applications for prolonging the life of the components,or salvaging worn out parts which would otherwise need to be scrapped.

Hard Chrome is often deposited on sliding parts for the protection of moving components of engines,pumps,compressors..etc. A typical Hard Chrome plant consists of a Chromic Acid based solution in plating vat.The D.C.current is required for the deposition of chromium which is supplied by an AC  to DC rectifier.The component to be plated is connected to the negative ,whereas lead anodes are used to complete the circuit.A constant monitoring  & pretreatment  are  required to ensure that the deposited chromium layer is of a satisfactory quality. Post plating operations such as buffing, grinding or superfinsihing are often undertaken,depending upon the field of application of the plated components.

Properties:
 

• Application
  The main properties for which Hard Chrome Plating  is deposited are

• Hardness and Resistance to wear

• Resistance to corrosion and heat

• Low coefficient of friction and non adhesive properties.

• Appearance and decorative properties.

             Some of the typical industrial application of Hard Chrome Plating are as
             follows:
