Armoloy® TDC 78Rc

Thin Dense Chromium Coating

Armoloy®'s Thin Dense Chromium Coating (TDC) Increases life and Improves Performance:

Armoloy® TDC (Thin Dense Chromium) is a low-temperature, multistate surface finishing process. Armoloy® utilizes proprietary chemical solutions and application processes that are carefully monitored to produce its TDC, a silver satin matte chromium coating. Precise deposits insure fidelity to part contours and details, without the edge build or "dog-boning" associated with conventional chrome-plating processes.

Extraordinary Properties

Armoloy® TDC is unlike all other conventional hard chrome plating operations. Our proprietary TDC coating conforms precisely to details in metal tools, resulting in a hard (78Rc), slippery, and corrosion-resistant tool surface.

Prevention of Hydrogen Embrittlement

Armoloy® TDC process control prevents the embrittlement phenomenon from occurring,though original manufacturing conditions may not, necessarily, be removable.

The Armoloy® TDC process will not affect the tensile, yield or fatigue properties of the basis metal. Pre- and post-baking are available upon request or specification. Armoloy® TDC certifies to AMS-2438, AMS QQ-C-320, AMS-2406, and most other military/industrial specifications.

Corrosion Resistance

Armoloy® TDC resists attack by most organic and inorganic compounds, with the exception of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid.

Inferior metal surface finish and low part hardness may inhibit Armoloy® TDC's corrosion resistant properties.
