Chromate Coating (Chromating)

About Chromate Coating

Chromating, a type of chemical conversion, involves the application of a thin chemical film over certain base metals or plated finishes to enhance corrosion resistance. The Chromating process can also improve the bond of subsequent paint coatings.

Reliable Plating applies the chromating process directly on Zinc or Aluminum substrates.

Reliable Plating also applies the chromating process over Cadmium, Tin, Tin/Zinc Alloy and Silver plated finishes.
