CHROME & NICKEL/CHROME PLATING Northlake offers a full line of plating services to meet the most demanding applications in the fluid power industry. Hard Chrome plating is available in common thicknesses of .0005" and .001" mininum per side or heavier, depending on the application. We have supplied cylinder rods with as much as .007" chrome plating per side.
We can also provide Nickel or Chrome plated hydraulic cylinder rods, bars and tubes for use in severe environments such as off shore drilling rigs or heavy construction equipment. This added corrosion protection extends the useful life of these products and is often a cost-effective solution.
