Located in central Connecticut, we have been servicing metal stamping and component manufacturers from across the United States for decades at our Waterbury Plating and Pape Electroplating businesses. Service is the key to our success.
We are the sole supplier offering SeaChrome™ electroplated coatings on fasteners used in the marine and boating industry as an alternative to more expensive chrome plated fasteners. Chrome plating has dominated most marine applications, but our proprietary coating system has emerged as a lower cost, environmentally friendly alternative to chrome. Our high volume barrel plating lines are capable of a superior chrome-like finish at lower cost than chrome plating which generally requires manual rack plating. We have become a critical component in the supply chain to large fastener manufacturers who need us to respond quickly.
We are a “one-stop” shop able to manage the logistics of your finishing needs from cleaning through third-party heat treatment and, finally, through our plating and post-plating processes. We offer quick turnarounds on our high volume barrel plating lines.
For customers in our geographic area, we offer pick-up and delivery at your doorstep in our own dedicated fleet of trucks. Our management collectively has over 100 years of experience in the metal plating business. We can put that knowledge to work for you to solve your most demanding surface finish challenges.
