1. Chromium plated rod refers to a rod with a hardness of 50-60 chromium elements formed by electroplating on the surface of a silver steel support.

2. Suitable for use in conjunction with linear bearings in the automation industry.

3. Chromium plated rods have undergone chrome plating treatment, usually hard chrome plating. They are one of the widely used products nowadays, and their side surface hardness and wear resistance are much better than ordinary steel rods.

Chromium plated rod is a type of rod material that forms a layer of chromium element with a hardness of 50-60 after electroplating on the surface of silver steel support.

The expanded knowledge about chrome plated rods is as follows:

1. Features: The chrome plating layer on its surface has good wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and strong corrosion resistance and light reflection. Especially after being processed by relevant technologies, it can also delay the generation or expansion of fatigue cracks, and improve the fatigue strength of oil cylinders or cylinder rods. Therefore, it is mainly suitable for use in automation industry and linear bearing matching.

2. Function: The most commonly used material for its chrome plated rod is 45 #, because chrome plated rods made from this material not only have good mechanical properties, but also can achieve certain toughness, plasticity, and wear resistance after appropriate heat treatment. Therefore, the biggest difference between silver steel rods and chrome plated rods is their mechanical properties. Silver steel rods have no mechanical properties, while chrome plated rods can achieve good mechanical properties after surface plating with hard chromium.
