Zinc Plating
Zinc plating is identical to electro-galvanizing in principle because both are electro-deposition processes. However, zinc plating is used on small parts such as Tractor Parts, Linkage Parts, Automotive Parts and other hardware items . The zinc is applied as an expendable electrode in a cyanide, alkaline non-cyanide, or acid chloride salt solution. Cyanide baths are the most operationally ef ficient but can potentially create pollution and are hazardous.
After alkaline or electrolytic cleaning, pickling to remove surface oxides, and rinsing, the parts are loaded into a Tanks and immersed in the plating solution. Various brightening agents may be added to the solution to add luster, but careful control is needed to ensure a quality product. Post-plating treatments may be used to passivate the zinc surface as well as impart various translucent colors or to extend the life of the coating.
Zinc plating is typically used for Pins, Balls and Weld on ends, and various small parts that will be exposed in interior or mildly corrosive conditions. For use in moderate or severe environments, the materials must be chromate-conversion coated for additional corrosion protection.
We have well equipped Zinc plating shop inhouse for protection of corresion resistance on base mental (MS & alloys). We are dedicated for save environment & used environment friendly chemicals which is fulfil the RoHS & REACH compliance.
