All metals | Chrome, zinc, copper, nickel, brass etc. | Metallic |
Get custom CNC metal or plastic parts and finish it off with an electroplated finish whether for maintenance or purely decorative purposes. We can coat your parts in chrome, zinc and nickel.
Metal Coating | Characteristics | Appearance | Typical Applications |
---|---|---|---|
Chrome | Increased surface hardness Excellent corrosion protection Excellent for decorative purposes | Silver finish with a slight blue tinge | Chrome plating is used for both maintenance and purely decorative purposes. Some common applications include car components, tools and kitchen utensils. |
Hard Chrome | Thicker than chrome plating Very hard and durable Decorative finishes | Silver finish with a slight blue tinge | Widely used in the aerospace and agricultural sectors. Some common applications include hydraulics, valves, crankshafts, harvester rolls and injection moulds. |
Nickel | Good corrosion resistance Good heat resistance Offers a softer decorative finish | Bright silver finish with a slight yellow tinge | Nickel playing is often used to protect lightweight plastics and other metals from wear and tear. |
Zinc | Economic and safe Excellent corrosion protection for steel | Bright silver/blue appearance | Mainly used for smaller CNC parts like nuts, bolts, fasteners that will be exposed in interior or mildly corrosive conditions. |
Electroplating is the process of using electrodeposition to coat an object in a layer of metal(s). A considerable skill and craft-technique is required to ensure an evenly-coated finished product.
