Features:
Unmatched Precision and DurabilityEach Hard Chrome Plated Shaft undergoes stringent manufacturing processes, including induction hardening and precision grinding, to achieve H7/h8 tolerances and exceptional surface finish. The chrome layer ensures surface hardness between 850-1150 HV, delivering robust performance and long-term reliability even in challenging environments.
Advanced Corrosion and Wear ResistanceEngineered for lasting performance, the hard chrome plating provides uniform thickness of 20-25 microns, significantly extending the shafts lifespan. Their superior resistance to corrosion and wear makes them ideally suited for hydraulic and pneumatic equipment operating in harsh conditions.
Certified Quality for Industrial ApplicationsEvery shaft is produced in compliance with ISO 9001 standards, ensuring flawless quality and consistency. With a smooth, hard chrome plated texture and precisely chamfered ends, these shafts are ready for immediate integration in critical industrial applications worldwide.
FAQs of Hard Chrome Plated Shafts:
Q: How are Hard Chrome Plated Shafts manufactured to ensure precision and durability?
A: The shafts undergo induction hardening and precision grinding to achieve consistent straightness ( 0.02 mm/m), roundness ( 0.003 mm), and a uniform chrome plating thickness (20-25 microns). These processes, along with strict ISO 9001 quality controls, guarantee the required hardness and surface finish for demanding applications.
Q: What benefits do the hard chrome plating and adherence offer for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder rods?
A: Hard chrome plating (850-1150 HV, 60-65 HRC) significantly enhances resistance to wear and corrosion, two critical factors in hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. The strong chrome adhesion ( 450 N/mm) ensures the coating remains intact under high loads and during operation, extending service intervals and reducing maintenance costs.
Q: When is it advisable to use Hard Chrome Plated Shafts in a project?
A: These shafts are ideal for applications requiring high precision, corrosion and wear resistance, such as hydraulic/pneumatic cylinders, guide rods, and mechanical actuators in industrial settings. They are particularly recommended where reliability and longevity are paramount.
Q: Where can Hard Chrome Plated Shafts be sourced for industrial applications?
A: High-quality shafts are exported and supplied from India by certified manufacturers and suppliers serving global industrial markets. Their wide availability covers diameters (8100 mm) and lengths (up to 6000 mm), supporting varied project requirements.
Q: What materials are used for manufacturing these shafts and how do they affect performance?
A: They are produced using alloy steel, EN8, CK45, or stainless steel. These materials provide a strong, resilient core (230280 HB), essential for supporting rigorous industrial operations while complementing the hardness and surface characteristics imparted by the chrome plating.
Q: How does the surface finish and straightness affect shaft performance?
A: A surface roughness of 0.2 m (Ra) and strict straightness ( 0.02 mm/m) minimize friction and ensure consistent motion. This precision reduces premature wear and supports smooth operation in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
