Brush Plating for the Marine & Offshore Sector

At Sterling Impreglon Asia, we specialize in Brush Plating, a precise, durable, and cost-effective repair method that restores hydraulic components without the need for costly replacements or lengthy downtimes.

Today, we showcase a hydraulic rod repair job where our Brush Plating process successfully restored damaged areas, extending the component’s lifespan and performance.
 

⚙️ The Challenge: Hydraulic Rod Wear & Corrosion

Marine hydraulic rods are exposed to saltwater, extreme loads, and harsh environments, making them highly susceptible to:

🔹 Scorelines & Scratches – Caused by seal failures, abrasive contaminants, or metal-to-metal contact.
🔹 Corrosion Pitting – Resulting from continuous exposure to moisture and seawater.
🔹 Surface Degradation – Due to friction, pressure cycles, and operational fatigue.

Without proper restoration, these issues compromise hydraulic performance, leading to fluid leaks, loss of precision, and potential system failures.

🔧 Our Solution: Brush Plating in Action

🚀 Precision Restoration Without Component Removal
Rather than replacing the hydraulic rod—a time-consuming and costly process—we applied Brush Plating directly on-site, selectively restoring only the damaged areas.

🔹 Step 1: Surface Preparation – The damaged area was cleaned, masked, and prepped to ensure strong adhesion.
🔹 Step 2: Precision Plating Application – Using our proprietary Brush Plating process, we applied a controlled layer of metal, building up the worn surface to its original dimensions.
🔹 Step 3: Finishing & Quality Control – After plating, the rod was polished and tested to ensure a smooth, corrosion-resistant finish.
