Electroplating Portable Barrels

Barrel plating is a form of electroplating used for plating a high volume of smaller metal objects in one sitting. It consists of a non-conductive barrel-shaped cage in which the objects are placed before being subjected to the chemical bath in which they become plated.Typical barrel plating applications include enhancing corrosion protection, increasing aesthetic appeal and producing an engineering finish that protects the parts against wear and tear. Barrel plating offers a cost-effective means of plating a high volume of small, durable parts such as stampings and fasteners.
