Metal components are thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and acid-activated to remove all surface contaminants and oxides, ensuring maximum adhesion of the cadmium deposit.
Parts are plated in a cyanide-based cadmium bath under controlled temperature and current conditions. The process deposits a uniform cadmium layer providing exceptional corrosion resistance, especially in marine and aerospace environments.
Plated parts undergo chromate passivation to further enhance corrosion resistance. Parts are then inspected for thickness, adhesion, and compliance with military and aerospace specifications.
