Hard Chrome Plating
Hard Chrome Plating
Silvax Process offers Hard Chrome Plating. This is an electrolytic process utilising a chromic acid based electrolyte. The part is made the cathode and, with the passage of a DC current via lead anodes, chromium metal builds on the component surface. A wide variety of parts can be coated; it requires only the proper fixturing, a large enough bath, sufficient lifting capacity, and adequate power sources. Hard chrome plating offers many attractive properties to the processed materials. Benefits include: hard chrome plating makes parts ultra hard, harder than most industrial abrasives and steel counter faces; gives superb substrate adhesion; can be applied to a wide variety of substrates; provides superb abrasion resistance; deposition temperature is low; gives ultra high metal-to-metal sliding wear resistance; has a bright, attractive finish; produces very low friction; and with careful attention to anode design and fixturing, chrome plating can be applied evenly to flat surfaces, to fine bores, even with large aspect ratios, to cylindrical like shafts or rollers, and to holes and close tolerance areas. Promoted by an experienced technocrat, Silvax Process has over 25 years experience in surface coatings business. Besides hard chrome plating, the company also offers other coating services like electroplating, zinc and nickel plating, electroless nickel plating and powder coating.
