Since 1993, the use of electroplating with dim at the surface of various parts and components has enabled a high quality, highly reliable and long lasting protection from corrosion on metals of all kinds. Dim plating has become an important part of the finishing process for a number of industrial applications including the manufacturing of small parts and components, automotive parts, and other products within many industries. Dim plating offers a number of advantages to the manufacturing or reproduction process and provides many benefits over other types of metals or finishes.
Dim plating is often used to enhance and protect objects made of all common metals including aluminum, brass, bronze, stainless steel and aluminum alloys. This type of finish provides durable protection, is resistant to scratching, minimizes the effects of wear and tear, and provides a high quality finish. Dim can also be used to provide decorative accents to aluminum, stainless steel and bronze surfaces. With dim plating, a protective layer is created on the surface of the part or component that serves as a barrier to corrosive elements. Dim plating also provides a very low electrical resistance and is an excellent conductor of heat.
The process of dim plating involves the use of a chemical reaction between the dim and the metal surface. During the plating process, a thin layer of the dim is applied to the surface of the part or component and then allowed to soak in and form a protective layer. After the plating process is complete, the part or component is then given a final sealant to provide a long lasting finish.
Dim plating is often used in the manufacturing process for items such as fasteners, nuts and bolts, bicycle frames and bearings, valves, plumbing fixtures and many more. The plating process not only offers a longer lasting finish, but it also improves the strength and performance of the part or component. It is also used to protect items from corrosion and wear and tear, making them more durable and longer lasting.
The main benefit of dim plating is that it is relatively quick and easy to apply, and can be used on a variety of metals with a variety of finishes. Additionally, dim plating can be used with other processes such as anodizing and etching to create unique finishes and customized products. The plating process is also cost effective and can be used on large and small batches of parts or components. Dim plating is also relatively easy to maintain, requiring only occasional applications of plating solution to keep the protective layer intact.
Overall, dim plating provides a high quality finish that is highly reliable and long lasting. The plating process is fast and easy to apply, cost effective, and requires only minimal maintenance, making it ideal for a number of industrial and commercial applications.
