Chrome coating is a finishing process where a layer of chromium is applied to a surface, typically through electroplating, to enhance its durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal. This method is commonly used to improve the appearance of metal parts, offering a shiny, reflective surface, while also providing protection against wear, scratches, and environmental factors. Chrome coating is widely used in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries for parts like bumpers, wheels, and decorative components.
| Descrição | Tolerância geral ou padrão |
|---|---|
| Coating Thickness | Typically 0.0001”–0.003” (0.0025–0.075 mm) for decorative coatings; up to 0.010” (0.25 mm) for industrial hard chrome. |
| Dimensional Tolerance Impact | Adds ±0.0002”–0.0005” (±0.005–0.013 mm) depending on coating thickness; thicker coatings may affect precision fits and clearance. |
| Surface Finish (Ra) | Ra 0.2–0.8 μm (8–32 microinches) for decorative chrome; hard chrome can achieve Ra 0.2 μm (8 microinches) or better. |
| Dureza | Hard chrome coatings typically range from 60–70 HRC, ideal for wear-resistant applications. |
| Adhesion Strength | ≥ 2,000 psi (13.79 MPa) typical (measured by ASTM B571, the adhesion to substrate). |
| Corrosion Resistance | Chrome coating provides excellent corrosion resistance, typically passing 1,000–2,000 hours of salt spray testing (ASTM B117). |
| Planicidade/Paralelismo | ≤ 0.0002” (±0.005 mm) for thin, consistent coatings; thicker coatings may have slightly higher tolerances. |
Em Técnico de moldes de elite, chrome coating is applied using specialized surface preparation and electroplating methods to ensure a strong, smooth, and long-lasting finish. Each technique enhances durability, adhesion, and appearance.
Before chrome coating, parts undergo cleaning and smoothing to ensure flawless adhesion
A layer of chromium is electrochemically deposited onto the part.
Before applying chrome, a nickel plating layer is often added to:
