ELECTROLOY^SM - Hard chrome impregnation

Our ELECTROLOY^SM process, which is a quality hard chrome impregnation process, features excellent wear resistant capabilities, as well as high corrosion protection and minimal edge build-up characteristics. This process is also referred to as thin dense chromium plating. A satin appearance is the result of this process. Widely used in all applications that require extra performance, ELECTROLOY^SM can be used on all tool steel alloys and tungsten carbide.

Properties:

Lubricity. Enhances the ability for oil to be retained in tiny micro-depressions created by this process. ELECTROLOY^SM lengthens the service life of fixtures, punches, and tooling by protecting against galling and other symptoms of friction.

Cosmetic. ELECTROLOY^SM often disguises unsightly repairs such as welds, nickel build-up, etc.

Hardness.  68-72 Rc.

Size change. Minimum size change that could occur would be less than twenty millionths (.000020) of an inch and on heavier applications, two tenths (.0002) of an inch without distortion.
