TDCflash(Thin Dense Flash Chrome)
 

Although this process was developed to compete with flash chrome, Metalife's TDCflash is a superior surface treatment to standard flash chrome.  The difference is the improved method of surface preparation and the silver satin finish.

TDCflash will maintain a 70-72 Rockwell C hardness and a normal Build up of 0.00005" to 0.0001".


TDCflash has excellent bonding properties, good corrosion resistance, reduced coefficient of friction and excellent wear characteristics making this a very versatile coating.  This process should be considered for any jobs requiring flash chrome and when cost is a factor.
 

Affects on Basic Metal Strength

The temperature of Metalife's processing solution of 136 degrees F, however the process will withstand temperatures from -400 to 1800 degrees F.  The tensile, yield and fatigue properties of the metal to be coated shall not be significantly affected by the process.  The purity of the chromium surfaces will not be less than 99.4% as deposited and there shall be no hydrogen embrittlement after processing.

 

Metals for Treatment

All ferrous and non-ferrous metals that are commonly machine wrought or cast and steel, brass, copper, etc. can be processed.
