By utilizing an ultra-high dispersion of nanometer-sized, spherical shaped diamond particles. The unique shape allows for optimal performance and will not abrade material. The diamond carbon connectivity significantly improves the cluster formation process, especially with chromium plating with a cluster structure.
APPLICATION BENEFITS OF DIAMOND HARD CHROME
Dies for Powder Metallurgy
Increases life up to 1,000% compared to PVD
and CVD coated dies.
Molds for Plastic and Rubber
Reduces mold injection pressure by up to 25% while also improving part release. Improves mold life up to 500% when molding glass-filled materials.
D2 Pelletizing Knives
Increases life up to 300%, plus more regrinds
from each blade.
Drawing and Forming Dies
Reduces galling and cold welding, improves part finish and increases tooling life 200 to 500%, requiring less maintenance.
Aluminum Die Cast Molds
Cores and dies last up to 300% longer
Oil Pump Cylinders
Increases corrosion and wear-resistance up to 200%
Tube Forming Rolls
Reduces galling and cold welding on rolls,
improving tube finish
Tube Sizing Mandrels
Maintains size and finish on 304ss, better than CrN, TiN, and TiAIN/WC/C
