Hard chrome plating ban
An environmentally friendly alternative to hard chrome plating.
With high toxicity levels, high costs, and more bans likely coming in the next decade - chemical conversion coatings are becoming a thing of the past. GGB polymer coatings can be an effective, environmental-friendly solution.
GGB polymer coatings solutions offer many benefits: low brittleness, high corrosion resistance, low friction, global availability, no post machining required.
Compared to hexavalent chrome in salt spray and nitric acid fog-resistance tests, polymer coatings offer superior chemical protection without any need for external lubrication. And when it comes to wear resistance, GGB’s TriboMate® technology is vastly superior to traditional, hard-chrome/bronze-greased tribological pairs.
