Chrome Plating
Chrome plating is a widely used surface treatment to improve the appearance and longevity of parts. By depositing a micro-thin layer of chromium onto a component, this process delivers a sleek, mirror-like aesthetic alongside robust defense against wear and environmental corrosion. Exceptional versatility makes chrome plating highly adaptable, allowing it to be seamlessly applied across a wide range of base materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper and

Nickel Plating
It is a precision surface-finishing treatment where a thin layer of nickel is deposited onto a substrate to improve durability, corrosion resistance, and appearance. It is achieved through two primary methods:nickel electroplating and electroless nickel plating. Nickel plating can be applied to a variety of materials including steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, iron, zinc and plastic. Nickel plating provides critical corrosion resistance, enhanced durability, and a premium

Black Oxidation
It is a chemical conversion finish for ferrous metals that upgrades surface aesthetics and provides essential corrosion resistance. This treatment is widely high-wear components such as gears, gauges and critical firearm assemblies due to its advantages: Maintains original dimensions: By altering the molecular structure of the substrate’s top 1.5 to 2.5 microns, this process adds no raw material to the component—perfectly preserving its original dimensional tolerances.

Black Anodizing
Black anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts the surface of aluminum into a highly durable, corrosion-resistant aluminum oxide layer. Anodizing significantly upgrades aluminum's wear and corrosion resistance, and a black anodized finish provides the added performance benefits of light absorption and highly efficient heat dissipation. Depending on application, coating thickness, and post-anodizing sealing, our anodized finishes deliver an operational lifespan of

Anodizing
Anodizing is an electrochemical process that thickens the natural oxide layer on the surface of metals to increase durability and corrosion resistance. While most commonly associated with aluminum, other non-ferrous metals can also be treated such as titanium and magnesium. Vios offers three main types of anodizing: Type I Chromic Acid Anodize, Type II Sulfuric Acid Anodize, and Type III Hard Anodize. Achieving consistent color across large or complex parts (e.g., curved
