1. Chromium is a more noble metal so it will not get corroded and thus steel surfaces will remain protected 2. Chromium plating provides corrosion protection as well as high glossiness and high hardness for better wear resistance and reduced friction to the steel surfaces 3. Chromium plating is required for providing high glossiness and high hardness for better wear resistance and reduced friction to the steel surfaces and not for corrosion protection 4. Chromium reacts with steel to form an alloy during electroplating which is corrosion resistant « Previous Next »
