Spray Chrome Alternate Solutions to Hard Chrome Plating

Hard Carbide Surface Alternative to Plating Processes

Bridle Roll in the Steel Industry Carbide Grip Surface
ASB Industries' engineered coating solutions give existing users of hard chrome plating a number of options for chrome alternatives. Our spray chrome coatings offer a range of unique characteristics that may make them preferable to electroplating or other surface enhancement options. We will work with you to create the ideal spray chrome coating solution for your application. We offer a range of chrome alternatives, and we will determine the best spray coating material and process based on your needs. Many of our spray chrome alternatives can be customized for optimum effectiveness.
ASB offers nickel-based chrome substitutes that will improve corrosion resistance such as amorphous coatings in the Hastelloy family of materials produce corrosion resistant layers. A thicker layer may also add wear life along with protecting substrate surfaces. We offer carbide alloy spray chrome coatings for better wear resistance. For high temperature applications, we provide ceramic-based spray coatings. All of our coatings can be applied in thicker layers than traditional plating can, for improved performance. We also offer post-treatment options for applications in severely corrosive environments, high temperature oxidizing environments and materials to resist molten metal pick-up and wear.
ASB has experience to provide a variety of surface finish options to reduce product defects when components make direct contact with product during conveying. For example, during high tension steel strip movement in continuous process lines, it is sometimes desirable to have angular type gripping surface with high friction coefficient to reduce slipping of surfaces that can mark or dent finished product. ASB's experience working with different substrate materials, thermal spray coating materials and equipment parameter options become viable and possibly longer-life alternate solution to hard chrome plating.
