Specification note

Plating thickness and finish are specified to application requirements.

Abrasion, friction, corrosion, heat and vibration are the most frequent causes of steel roll wear. Hard chrome plating interposes a super-hard, anti-friction, rust-resistant layer between exposed and mating surfaces — extending service life and protecting roll geometry.

Typical Characteristics

  • Super-hard, low-friction working surface
  • Strong resistance to corrosion and rust
  • Protects base geometry in abrasive service
  • Suitable for new rolls and refurbishment

Applications

  • Abrasive web and sheet contact positions
  • Corrosive or wet process environments
  • High-friction guide and drive duties
  • Restoration of worn roll surfaces
