FAQ
Common questions about hard chrome plating and rod repair.
How long does hard chrome plating take?
Typically a few working days depending on build thickness and size; call us to discuss urgent jobs.
Should I choose hard chrome or laser cladding?
Hard chrome suits light-to-moderate wear and a bright, low-friction finish. Laser cladding suits deep damage, pitting and harsh corrosive environments. We’ll recommend the right repair when we inspect the part.
Can you repair undersize or scored hydraulic rods?
Yes. The rod is ground back to sound material, built up with hard chrome, then ground to size.
Do you service regional WA?
Yes. We take freight from anywhere in WA.
