Chrome Plating

We categorize chrome plating into 2 main categories...Decorative Chrome and Industrial/Hard Chrome.  For the Industrial/Hard Chrome Platers, our more popular products are our High Speed Etch-Free catalysts, mist suppressants, Liquid Chromic Acid, and neutralizing salts.  For the Decorative Platers, our more popular products are the Trivalent chrome process along with our Black Chrome process.

​

  • Hard/Functional Chrome

    • ACE-CRL40 - A Liquid Hexavalent Chromic Acid Solution with 40% chrome, (550g/L)

    • HE Chrome - A stand-alone catalyst additive that can be used with any standard chromic acid that makes the plating bath a highly efficient, (up to 25%), and etch-free plating process

    • DHC Spray Suppressant - A Non-PHOS mist suppressant that has been specifically developed to reduce surface tension and mists in plating and pickling baths.

    • Chrome Neutralizing Salts - Reduces chrome 6 in rinse waters to a trivalent state.

  • Decorative Chrome

    • Decochrome T - A decorative trivalent chromium plating process. It is a substitute for traditional hexavalent chromium plating processes.

    • Decochrome - A liquid high speed catalyst that can be added to a hexavalent chromic acid solution.

    • Black Chrome - Black chrome has been developed to provide a deep black non reflective finish for both decorative and functional applications as an alternative to traditional chrome. It can be applied directly to most substrates.
