Hard chrome plating deposits electrochemically bonded chromium onto a metal substrate for the purpose of protection. For repair applications and internal bore geometries, it is a faster and lower cost option than thermal spray alternatives.
Hard Chrome and Electroless Nickel Plating for Oil and Gas: The Parts That Can’t Afford to Fail
Piston rods go through thousands of cycles per day. Ball valves are constantly exposed to hydrogen sulfide and saltwater.
Electroless Nickel Plating in Food Processing
If you work in food processing, you already know how wash-downs, acidic cleaners, moisture and heat can cause wear and stress on the equipment. Many food processing facilities try to coat the metal, such as stainless steel to extend the life of the equipment. Electroless nickel plating in food processing can help.
Avoid Downtime with Hydraulic Cylinder Repairs
According to Applied Sciences in a 2021 article entitled, “Failure Analysis for Hydraulic System of Heavy-Duty Machine Tool with Incomplete Failure Data,” found that 50% of hydraulic cylinder failures were caused by oil pollution, poor maintenance and unsatisfactory outsourced parts quality.
