from pilot to production

TripleHard - Better Chrome, Delivered

Why TripleHard® beats today's options

Current option

Key pain

TripleHard® advantage

Cr⁶⁺ hard chrome

Carcinogenic, rising liability, few months coating life

Same or higher hardness without Cr⁶⁺; zero toxic effluent, coating life up to 34 months, no authorization cost

Thermal spray / PVD

 High CAPEX, energy-intensive

Significantly lower part cost; retrofit existing electro-plating lines

Other Cr³⁺ chemistries

Not suitable for heavy industry

Superior bath lifetime + self-lubricating micro-crack network, designed for heavy industry

How to get TripleHard® in three steps

Step 1. Contact us

We review your component and process data and provide a cost-saving estimate. We partner with you to adapt our Cr³⁺ process to your specific application.

Pilot coating (optional step)

Savroc has already conducted coatings on multiple component types — hydraulic rods, engine valves, defense barrels and more. Only when extra field validation is needed, test parts are plated in Kuopio Tech Center, measured for hardness, corrosion and friction, then returned to you for in-field validation.

Step 2. Upgrade & license your line

Most of plants simply convert an existing Cr⁶⁺ tank; when that’s not possible, Savroc supplies a pre-assembled skid that plugs into standard utilities. Secure your process license and scale confidently with minimal downtime.

Step 3. Chemistry supply & lifecycle support

Benefit from recurring Cr³⁺ chemistry deliveries and 24/7 remote analytics – ensuring consistent quality, extended bath life and fast payback.
