Tough Surfaces for Tough Conditions: Hard Chrome Plating That Delivers

Australia’s harsh working conditions chew through equipment fast. If you run machinery in mining, transport, or heavy manufacturing, you know exactly how brutal wear and tear can get. At Australian Surface Technologies, we sort that out with high-quality hard chrome plating that stands up to extreme stress.

We rebuild damaged or worn components so you don’t have to fork out for expensive replacements. Our crew strips back the part, cleans it properly, and applies a thick, even layer of chrome. That coating cuts down on friction, boosts hardness, and keeps corrosion at bay. Once we finish the job, your component works better, lasts longer, and handles rough conditions with ease.

We see all kinds of gear come through our Melbourne workshop — from forklift parts and printing rollers to hydraulic shafts and dies. Our team doesn’t take shortcuts. We plate to spec, check every measurement, and finish with care. That way, you get a part that’s ready to go back into service without fuss.

Clients stick with us because we offer straight-up advice, fast turnarounds, and consistent results. We work closely with engineers, trades, and workshop managers to make sure the job suits the jobsite. Whether it’s a one-off repair or a regular batch of gear, we handle it with the same level of focus.

Our hard chrome plating doesn’t just improve durability — it gives you better performance from gear you already own. That means more uptime, lower maintenance costs, and no need to hunt down hard-to-source parts. Why replace when you can restore?

At Australian Surface Technologies, we combine experience, quality gear, and local know-how to deliver results that go the distance. Give us a call and let’s talk about how we can help you toughen up your parts and keep your operation running strong.
