We ONLY Hard Chrome—NOT Flash Chrome!

Hydraulic cylinder rods wear with use. When the surface is marred, the result is seal damage and leakage. It’s a labor intensive process to hard chrome a new surface. It takes about a week under normal conditions.

And the result is unsurpassed.

  1. The old chrome is stripped off by electrolysis.
  2. The rod is precision ground to a smooth surface.
  3. The rod is then inserted into the Chrome tank where Chrome is slowly applied by electrolysis. It takes approximately 3 hours per thousandth inch.
  4. The rod is removed from the tank and seasoned for 8-12 hours. The new surface is a dull gray.
  5. The rod is then polished to a high gloss, precision finish.


There IS only one Right Way.
