Plasma Ion Nitriding as an alternative to Chrome Plating
Tired of flaking, spalling, chipping, and edge build-up problems associated with wet-bath plating processes and the high rework costs of stripping, re-plating, or replacing your parts?
Plasma nitriding is a diffusion-type process. It is not a surface coating that can come off. It is an actual surface transformation that produces a wear-resistant layer on the material’s surface while minimizing dimensional changes.
With additional PLASOX® post-plasma oxidation treatment, your parts can achieve enhanced corrosion protection.

No Unwanted Surface Build-Up
In many cases, unwanted chrome plating can web across small cavities and build up in corners or on critical surfaces. Grinding or other material-removal methods may then be necessary to remove the excessive build-up, leading to additional unforeseen production costs.
