Hard Chromium
- Hard Deposits
Hard Chromium provides a wear-resisting, low-friction surface and can also be used to build up surface thickness where metal has been lost through wear or during manufacture. Components are usually pre-machined or ground prior to Hard Chrome and then ground or honed to finished size. Hard Chromium Plating is often used over a heavy deposit of nickel to improve corrosion resistance. A hardness of 1100 HV can be obtained.
