Expert hard-chrome restoration for cylinder rods. Smooth, durable, and built to last.
At Cylinders, Inc., our rechroming service brings worn or scored rods and tubes back to precise, seal-friendly condition. We chemically strip the damaged chrome, assess and repair the base metal, straighten as needed, then pre-grind for uniformity. Industrial hard chrome is applied to the specified thickness, followed by finish grinding to exact diameter and a mirror polish that reduces friction and extends seal life.
Staying true to our “repair-and-improve” philosophy, we don’t just refinish, we correct the factors that caused the wear, and upgrade materials or tolerances where it makes sense. The result is a rod that resists corrosion, runs cooler, and lasts longer in the field.
Depending on your requirements, our Rechroming can involve:
We can work on any kind of hydraulic cylinder as well as it’s components.
Caterpillar, Komatsu, Parker, etc.
From compact cylinders to large industrial units.
