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.
