IROXIDE™ TCA ANODES
IrOxide™TCA coated titanium anodes are proven to be the most cost-effective solution for tri-chrome plating, an anode solution that is both environmentally and technically sound
IrOxide™ TCA Anodes for
Tri-Chrome Plating
IrOxide TCA-coated titanium anodes are the most cost-effective solution for tri-chrome plating. An environmentally and technically sound anode solution, IrOxide TCA anodes are a simple, easy-to-use and cost-effective alternative versus lead anode systems, which require a semi-permeable membrane to prevent the buildup of hexavalent chrome as well as continual maintenance and additional, costly waste treatment. IrOxide TCA anodes are fabricated from commercially pure titanium to the size requirements of your application.

TECHNICAL ATTRIBUTES
IrOxide™TCA coated titanium anodes are proven to be the most cost-effective solution for tri-chrome plating. They provide an anode solution that is both environmentally and technically sound, thereby allowing your operators to focus on providing your customers the goods and services they desire in the most timely manner and at the lowest cost.
IrOxide™TCA anodes are a simple, easy-to-use and cost-effective alternative to lead anode systems, which require a semi-permeable membrane to prevent the buildup of hexavalent chrome as well as continual maintenance and additional, costly waste treatment. They also eliminate any chance of cross-contamination in your plating tank. Cross-contamination can occur with lead anode systems if the membrane fails or the anolyte level in the lead anode system breaches containment of the anode compartment.
IrOxide™TCA anodes are fabricated from commercially pure titanium to any size your application requires. For our new customers we offer our expertise in anode design to ensure that our anodes meet both the electrical and mechanical needs of their specific application in the most cost-effective manner.
The Optimum Anode Technologies IrOxide™ TCA coated titanium anode offers optimum performance with its maintenance-free trivalent chrome bath anodes typically providing up to two years’ life between recoats. The entire anode is coated with Optimum Anodes IrOxide™ TCA coating, which protects and produces optimum efficiency in throwing power to your tri-chrome bath, and ensures there will be no undesired generation of hex-chrome at the anode surface.
| FEATURES | BENEFITS |
