Hard Chrome Plating for Shafts, Spools & Industrial Components

Restore Worn Components with Professional Hard Chrome Plating

Titan Chrome specialises in hard chrome plating and precision grinding for shafts, rollers, spools, hydraulic components, and other industrial wear parts. We restore worn metal surfaces, improve wear resistance, and return components to their required dimensions, helping extend service life while reducing replacement costs.

Established in 1991, Titan Chrome has earned a reputation for delivering reliable hard chrome plating solutions across South Africa. From small valve bank spools to large industrial shafts measuring up to 6.5 metres, our workshop is equipped to restore a wide range of components.

Unlike decorative chrome, hard chrome plating is an industrial coating designed to resist wear, friction, abrasion, and corrosion. Combined with precision grinding, we restore components to the correct size and finish, ready for service.

Why Choose Titan Chrome?

Hard Chrome Plating & Grinding Under One Roof

We complete both the hard chrome build-up and the final precision grinding in-house, creating a more efficient repair process and ensuring every component meets the required specifications.

Restore Instead of Replace

Hard chrome plating rebuilds worn surfaces, allowing many components to be repaired instead of replaced, helping reduce maintenance costs and equipment downtime.

Small & Large Component Capability

We restore valve bank spools, hydraulic rods, rollers, shafts, sleeves, and other industrial components. Our workshop has an 850 mm swing and grinding capacity of up to 6.5 metres.

Established Since 1991

With more than three decades of experience, Titan Chrome remains focused on one specialist service—hard chrome plating and precision grinding.

Our Process

1. Inspect the Component

We assess wear, scoring, corrosion, and dimensional loss to determine the most suitable repair process.

2. Apply Hard Chrome

The component is prepared before hard chrome plating is applied to rebuild the worn surface and create a durable, wear-resistant layer.

3. Precision Grinding

The plated component is precision ground to the required dimensions and surface finish before a final quality inspection.
