Industries

Agriculture

Agriculture

Agricultural hydraulic cylinders are an important component in modern machinery as it provides precise and controlled force. Whether it is chrome or nickel plating, we ensure your tractors, harvesters, and hoppers work effectively with our plating and repair services.

Rail

Rail

To prevent corrosion on critical braking components for the Rail industry, we use electroless nickel plating. This ensures a long life and helps prevent failures.

Mining

Mining

Mining components are exposed to highly corrosive and acidic environments. Electroless nickel plating and chrome plating are used to prevent corrosion and wear, ensuring the reliability and longevity of the parts.

Construction

Construction

Heavy machinery are vital for the construction industry. Cylinders use pressurized hydraulic fluid to move in linear motions for lifting, pushing, pulling and steadying heading loads. Our plating and repair services keep you moving without downtime.

Food & Beverage

Food & Beverage

In the food and beverage industry, electroless nickel plating provides a protective, corrosion-resistant coating for various components. It's especially useful for parts with complex shapes and sizes that require uniform protection to withstand constant cleaning.

Oil & Gas

Oil & Gas

The oil and gas industry operates in harsh environments. Proper hard chrome, electroless nickel plating, and repair of cylinders, manifolds, and piston rods ensure the efficiency and stability of these systems. Let us help keep your operations running reliably.

Chemical

Chemical

In the chemical industry, hard chrome plating and electroless nickel plating are applied to components like valves and manifolds to protect from harsh and corrosive environments. The plating prevents chemical attack and reduces wear, significantly extending the lifespan and ensuring years of reliable service for critical equipment.

Automotive

Automotive

Automotive cylinders and piston rods are crucial components providing linear motion in automotive manufacturing. By hard chrome plating or electroless nickel plating to your key components, allow for long lasting use.

Molds and Dies

Molds and Dies

Electroless nickel plating is a highly effective surface treatment for molds, dies, and rotary die rolls due to its properties. It applies a uniform coating that provides a combination of corrosion resistance, hardness, and lubricity. This improves the performance and longevity of tooling used in plastic injection molding, rubber molding, and die cutting.

Dry Bulk Material Handling

Dry Bulk Material Handling

Hard chrome and electroless nickel plating are both used in dry bulk material handling to protect equipment from the abrasive and corrosive nature of the materials being moved. Whether it is chrome or nickel plating, our process ensures that your rotary airlocks can stand up to harsh environments.

Valve

Valve

In the valve industry, plating valve components with hard chrome or electroless nickel is essential to reduce wear and corrosion over years of use. This process significantly extends the lifespan of valves, ensuring they can withstand harsh operating conditions and maintain their performance and reliability.
