Features of Silvec's Chrome Plating
Features of Silvec's Chrome Plating 1. The appearance of the underlying nickel plating is directly reflected in the appearance after chrome plating. For example, applying chrome plating to a product with glossy nickel plating that has been buff-polished will yield a mirror-like finish. Similarly, if the material is buff-polished and then chrome plated over velour nickel plating, the velour's matte texture will remain visible. 2. Compliant with the RoHS directive. (Although hexavalent chromium is used in the plating solution, it precipitates as metallic chromium in the product, allowing compliance with the RoHS directive.) 3. Hexavalent chromium plating is difficult to apply to areas such as weak electrical components, which may result in exposed nickel on the backside of complex shapes. Due to this characteristic, barrel plating is not permitted. In some cases, fine screws may be plated at the back with mesh attachment, but currently, our company only performs stationary plating using jigs. (Trivalent chromium plating can be done using a barrel.) 4. Method: Jig use (stationary plating)

basic information
**What is Chrome Plating?** Chrome plating can be broadly categorized into two types: hard chrome plating (industrial chrome plating) and decorative chrome plating. Hard chrome plating involves plating chrome in a thickness range of approximately 5μm to 500μm, and is used in products that take advantage of its wear resistance and low friction coefficient. Our chrome plating is decorative chrome plating, which involves applying a nickel plating or similar as a base layer, followed by a chrome plating of approximately 0.25μm to 1.25μm. Decorative plating utilizes the unique beautiful white glossy appearance of chrome, which is highly corrosion-resistant, hard, wear-resistant, and has excellent durability against discoloration. **Contact Information** TEL: 048-994-5931 FAX: 048-994-5935 E-mail: info@silvec.co.jp
