Capability 02 — Hard chrome plating
Worn parts, back to original dimensions.
Hard chrome has been the mainstay of repairing scored and worn machinery parts. Thick deposits laid down and then ground back bring a component home to drawing.
Plated and polished — the surface this page is named after
A long-wearing surface,
on almost anything
Chrome creates a hard, low-friction face that is valued across machinery and mating-surface applications. Its resistance to abrasive resins extends life considerably while improving release characteristics — which in production terms means more parts between changeovers.
Combined with grinding, it is also the most economical way to save a part that would otherwise be scrapped.
