Cadmium Electroplating Services

Cadmium, a soft bluish metal that is bright silver in appearance, provides a superior protective coating that stops corrosion. It is an exceptional metal for corrosion protection because it has great electrodeposition throwing power. Cadmium plates down into the hidden recesses of machined parts and fasteners.

An excellent choice in the metal finishing industry for any part that requires exceptional environmental protection is cadmium. This metal is known to have excellent properties of ductility, solderability, natural lubricity and superior corrosion protection in marine environments as it is also antifungal.

No other metal surpasses the protection of cadmium with the additional properties.
