This is a composite surface treatment that has the hardness and wear resistance of hard chrome plating combined with the non-stick and release properties of PTFE. It is suitable for sliding parts where release properties are required.

This is a composite plating of hard chrome plating and fluororesin known by trademarks such as Teflon. It combines the high hardness and wear resistance of hard chrome plating with the non-stick and release properties of fluororesins. **Features** - **Release Properties and Wear Resistance** The excellent non-stick properties, low friction coefficient, and self-lubricating characteristics of fluororesins, along with the low friction coefficient of hard chrome plating, provide superior release properties and wear resistance compared to standard chrome plating and other fluororesin composite platings. - **Hardness** Since the base is chrome plating, it has a hardness of approximately Hv850. - **Heat Resistance** It is below the melting point of fluororesins (327°C). Continuous use is recommended around 250°C. - **Safety** It complies with the standards for utensils and containers based on the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Notification No. 370, making it suitable for applications where food comes into direct contact with the Teflon surface. *Analysis experiments have been conducted by the Japan Food Analysis Center.* - **Processing Characteristics** Due to the low processing temperature of about 200°C, there is minimal thermal impact on the material. - **Maintenance-Free, Long Lifespan**

Achieve maintenance of lubricity and improved load-bearing capacity and durability with micro-crack plating + PTFE!

We have a product called "Tef-Lock," which is our original plating that incorporates PTFE into hard chrome plating. This is a composite surface treatment that combines the high hardness and wear resistance of chrome plating with the low friction and lubrication properties of PTFE. However, in high-load environments where chrome plating may wear away, it has been difficult to maintain low friction and lubrication. However, we have developed "Tef-Lock Fine" by impregnating PTFE into our original Cro-Fine (high-hardness micro-crack chrome plating) coating, which solves these issues. 【Features】 ■ Hardness increased compared to conventional Tef-Lock (HV850 → HV900) ■ Increased crack density and higher PTFE content compared to conventional Tef-Lock ■ Maintains low friction under high loads and exhibits excellent wear resistance *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Are you having trouble with cracks in the plating transferring onto the mirror-finished rolls for film molding? It can be improved with crack-free plating.

Hard chrome plating has excellent hardness with a hardness value of HV750 to 900, but it has the issue of cracks (fine fissures) in the coating, which means that no matter how much the surface is polished to a mirror finish, the cracks can transfer to the product. Our company has long had the technology for a non-crack chrome plating called "Cloamore." The hardness can reach up to HV1800 through heat treatment at temperatures between 200°C and 600°C, and due to being crack-free, it has excellent corrosion resistance. However, since the coating can only be applied as a thin film with a thickness of up to 5μ, it has not been applicable to mirror surface rolls until now. However, we have developed a "Super Mirror Crack-Free Roll" that solves these problems by forming a special two-layer structure. 【Features and Effects】 ■ Achieves a super mirror crack-free surface with a roughness of Ry0.05 or less. ■ Since Cloamore is on the outermost layer, it has a hardness of about HV1200, which is approximately 1.5 times that of hard chrome plating, making it less prone to scratches due to its excellent wear resistance. ■ Being crack-free enhances corrosion resistance and reduces resin accumulation on the roll surface. It is also expected to improve anti-fouling properties and non-contamination effects. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.

Further improve the hardness and corrosion resistance of hard chrome plating with micro-crack plating!

Typically, hard chrome plating is performed using a bath made of anhydrous chromic acid and sulfuric acid, referred to as a "Sargent bath," dissolved in water. Its hardness ranges from HV750 to 900, which is quite excellent, but even so, under harsh usage conditions, wear of the plating is unavoidable. Additionally, the cracks (fine fissures) present in the hard chrome plating layer can expand when heat is applied, which can be problematic depending on the application. However, our company has developed "CRO-FINE," which solves these issues by improving the components of the plating bath. 【Features】 ■ Hardness is excellent at HV950 to 1000 ■ Compared to typical hard chrome plating, the extent of crack expansion due to heating is smaller ■ Although there are many cracks, they are narrow and shallow, resulting in minimal penetration to the substrate and excellent corrosion resistance ■ Not only is it excellent in wear resistance, but it also reduces the wear amount of the opposing material *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We have successfully achieved high corrosion resistance that significantly exceeds 24 hours in the Cass test through the hybridization (composite) of plating films and inorganic materials!

Hybrid chrome is a technology that enhances the functional properties of chrome plating by hybridizing (compositing) chrome plating films with inorganic materials. Our company has successfully achieved corrosion resistance that significantly exceeds 24 hours in the Cass test through hybridization with glassy materials. By sealing the micro-cracks, which are a weakness of chrome plating, corrosion resistance has been greatly improved, and at the same time, it also prevents the intrusion of foreign substances into the cracks.

"Because it's an invisible place, we won't overlook it." Japan's climate is characterized by high temperatures and humidity, and particularly after typhoons and heavy rains, the conditions can be harsh for homes. It's not just the roofs and exterior walls that are affected by rain and wind. The area beneath the floor is actually the most susceptible and often overlooked point. This time, we will explain the "checkpoints for under the floor" that should be confirmed after a typhoon or heavy rain, the "responses" if abnormalities are found, and measures for preventing recurrence. [Table of Contents] ■ Why is underfloor checking necessary? ■ Checkpoints to confirm after a typhoon or heavy rain ■ Responses when damage is discovered ■ Points for preventing recurrence ■ Suggestions from Seihou Products ■ Summary Please be sure to read the [related materials] and [related links]. ↓ ↓ ↓
