Chromium plated bars

Chromium plated stainless steel bars, with enhanced surface hardness and increased resistance to corrosion provided by the chrome plating, are the ideal solution for various applications in marine environments, extreme atmospheric conditions, mining industry, road transport, chemical plants, civil engineering, farming machinery, off-shore industry, hydraulic and oleo dynamic, aeronautical, aerospace and nuclear.

The chromium deposit (thickness of 20, 25 or more microns) increases surface hardness, reduces surface roughness and guarantees improved performance in terms of duration in corrosive environments.

PRODUCT RANGE: Diameter from 8 to 200mm (other sizes available on request).
