The global Hard Chrome Plating market size is expected to reach $ 2649 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 4.1% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

Hard chrome plating is an electroplating process that involves applying a layer of chromium to a surface by submerging it in a chromic acid solution. Hard chrome plating can increase the durability, hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of metal components for more effective use in machinery and equipment. It is possible to apply chrome plating without altering the properties of the original component, and deposit it in the precise thickness necessary for a specific application. Hard chrome plating creates a surface that is very hard (68-72 Rockwell C), highly wear and corrosion resistant, has a low coefficient of friction, and very smooth and easy to clean.

In this report, sales mean the surface area of the hard chrome coating provided by the company.
