S45C Hard Chrome Rod is the normally material used for hydraulic cylinder rod and other industry use due to the good hardness and excellent chemical properties.
S45C chrome plated rod Material : also called CK45 / DIN CK45 / SAE 1045 and JIS S55C. By precision cold drawing, the tensile strength is higher. After harden chrome plating, the chrome shaft obtains good corrosion resistance, great abrasion resistance, uniformity of hardness. Piston Rod can further go through other additional processing like lathing, milling and drilling, etc. Suitable for piston rod, hydraulic cylinder rod, pneumatic cylinder shaft, punching machine, pressing machine, mechanical guide rod, mechanical column bar, solid bar, crane, plastic injection machine, sealing machine, packaging machinery, and other automation machinery.
Hard chrome piston rods processed by more than ten processing, Precision level of f7 tolerance, surface hardness min. HV900.
Chrome layer thickness 20-50micron can be choice, Salt spray test 60-90hours.
Induction hardened hardness HRC55±2, hardened depth 0.5-3.5mm can be choice.
