A byproduct of zinc, cadmium has many unique properties that make it an ideal coating for certain applications. It’s a popular choice for plating aerospace and automotive components, as well as any other parts that will be exposed to harsh environments. Cadmium plating improves corrosion...
Electroplating is crucial in enhancing the durability, corrosion resistance, and appearance of various substrates. There are many different plating metals to choose from, each improving the substrate in different ways. Zinc-nickel and cadmium are popular plating metals that offer many significant yet similar advantages. So...
Corrosion slowly eats away at the integrity of metal parts, jeopardizing aircraft, vehicles, and equipment in various industries. Electroplating can significantly enhance a substrate's ability to withstand corrosion. However, not all metals are created equal. Choosing the right plating metals for your project helps increase...
Even at low thicknesses, cadmium plating provides its excellent corrosion resistance to the underlying substrate. Typically, cad plating is divided into three types based on post-plating treatment. CRC proudly offers all three types of cadmium plating to our partners in the aerospace and defense industries. What...
