1 Hard chromium plating is a procedure in which the surface of the material is given a<br />
chromium layer.<br />
2 Hard chromium plating is required when:<br />
- the original chromium layer becomes thinner by friction than is permitted,<br />
- or the material under the chromium layer is corroded.<br />
(b) Safety Precautions<br />
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE CONSUMABLE MATERIALS. OBEY THE MATERI-<br />
AL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AND YOUR LOCAL REGULATIONS.<br />
WARNING: OBEY THE MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MATERIALS WHICH YOU<br />
USE FOR CLEANING PROCEDURES BEFORE HARD CHROMIUM PLATING.<br />
WARNING: OBEY THE MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS FOR EACH CHEMICAL WHICH YOU<br />
USE IN THIS PROCEDURE.<br />

(4). Silver Plating<br />
(a) General<br />
1 Silver Plating is a procedure in which the surface of the material is given a layer of silver. You<br />
do this with the silver electrolytic process. Silver plating is used for its electrical conductive<br />
properties and its resistance to fretting corrosion under hot conditions.<br />
(b) Safety Precautions<br />
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE CONSUMABLE MATERIALS. OBEY THE MATERI-<br />

USE IN THIS PROCEDURE. SOME <strong>OF</strong> THESE MATERIALS CONTAIN IRRITANTS.<br />
(c) Procedure<br />
For details of silver plating and the necessary equipment refer to PMS Chapter 01-02-01 .<br />
(5). Zinc Spraying<br />
(a) General<br />
1 Zinc spraying is a procedure in which the surface of the metal is given a zinc layer. This<br />
can be necessary when the steel repair parts touch aluminum components and galvanic<br />
corrosion can occur.<br />
2 The zinc layer is a type of sacrificial protection. The corrosion effects initially damage the zinc<br />
layer and not the material below the protective layer.<br />
(b) Safety Precautions<br />
