What’s one of the most effective ways to protect these critical components and keep them working consistently for years? The answer is found in the surface finishing.
Precision Grinding and Polishing: The Final Step That Makes All the Difference
In manufacturing, the difference between a part that performs flawlessly and one that fails in service often comes down to the final step — and that final step is most often, precision grinding and polishing.
Hydraulic Cylinder Rod Reconditioning for Extra Long Industrial Applications
When piston rods are extra long, let’s say 20 feet or more, the challenge of maintaining and repairing them becomes cumbersome. That’s where hard chrome plating reconditioning comes into play.
Surface Protection for Dry Bulk Material Handling with Hard Chrome and Electroless Nickel Plating
Dry bulk material handling processes high volume particles of various sizes, it places a great amount of stress on the machines and wears away at the surface of the hydraulic rods.
Industrial Valve Plating
In industrial valve plating, both hard chrome plating and electroless nickel plating are used to improve wear resistance and corrosion protection. However, some customers ask if there is a difference between the two applications.

Electroless Nickel Plating for Rail Braking Components Extends Service Life in Demanding Conditions
The rail industry requires brakes that are reliable and safe in order to keep trains running consistently while controlling costs. That’s because brake components deal with a lot; from extreme temperatures and weather conditions, pressure from the weight of the rail cars to the exposure of contaminants.
Precision I.D. and O.D. Grinding Services
I.D. and O.D. grinding are precision machining processes used to achieve accurate dimensions and smooth surface finishes on cylindrical components. Manufacturers rely on I.D. and O.D. grinding when parts need to meet specific tolerances, maintain its original shape, and fit with other components in demanding applications.
