Industrial Hard Chrome
REDEFINING INDUSTRY STANDARDS
Believe it or not, delivering the finest chrome plated bars, induction hardened chrome plated bars, and OD chrome plated tubing to our customers was not enough, so Industrial Hard Chrome had to evolve into a company doing more than chrome plating.
To achieve our goal of Redefining The Standards, we needed to control the raw material. We invested in a custom cold finishing bar line and formed a second company, Bar Technologies, to purchase and process only the best raw materials directly from producing mills to very exacting specifications. By doing so, Bar Technologies could then deliver the finest turned, ground, and polished (TG&P) product to Industrial Hard Chrome. Our products and capabilities lead the industry in straightness, tolerance, and roundness.
