La présente invention a pour objet de perfectionner le revêtement de chrome connu afin qu'il présente une grande résistance à l'usure à de faibles coefficients de frottement même sans lubrifiants. [...] Le revêtement de couche mince mate Duralloy confère à la pièce d'œuvre [...] une épaisseur d'au moins 2 µm et, de préférence, d'environ 4 à 6 µm ou plus. Les paramètres du bain sont réglés de telle sorte qu'il se forme une structure perlée d'une profondeur de rugosité de surface d'au moins environ 1 µm et de préférence d'environ 1,5 µm à environ 5 µm. 2, record 1, French, - profondeur%20de%20rugosit%C3%A9
