Hard chrome and electroless nickel plating improve wear resistance, lower friction, and guard against corrosion, which helps components last longer in tough environments. They enhance performance by reducing galling, restoring worn parts, and offering excellent lubricity for easy mold release, ultimately increasing machine efficiency. The strength and durability of hard chrome lead to reduced maintenance and extended service life. Electroless nickel provides a uniform coating, ensuring consistent thickness on all surfaces, including difficult angles and edges, making it ideal for complex shapes and detailed designs.
Our specialties include the plating of plastic injection and compression molds, cavities, cores, inserts, pins, split-dies, hydraulic cylinders, shafts, military parts, aerospace applications, automotive fuel and brake system components, oil and gas equipment, medical, textile and printing, industrial equipment parts like pumps, gears, shafts and gaskets, mining, heavy machinery equipment, food processing, military, electronics including components like male/female adapters and connectors, as well as pistons, molds, dies, rolls, screws, punches, barrels, guides, mandrels, sleeves, rotors, plates, and other various intricate machined tool parts.
