Induction hardened chrome rods are precision-crafted chromium alloys treated with a magnetic induction process. This technology heats the metal surface to extreme temperatures (up to 1,500°C) and rapidly cools it using a quenching medium. The result? A hardened outer layer (5-8mm thick) with exceptional wear resistance, while the core remains ductile for shock absorption.
Key Benefits for Manufacturing Induction Hardened Chrome Rods:
✅ Longer Lifespan: Reduce replacement frequency and labor costs.
✅ Superior Strength: Handle heavy loads and repetitive stress without bending or breaking the raw manterials
✅ Corrosion Resistance: Ideal for automotive, aerospace, and marine industries like hydraulic cylinder applications exposed to harsh environments.
✅ Cost Efficiency: Save up to 40% on maintenance over traditional rods.
