Industrial Cylinder/Actuator Solutions for Solar ApplicationsFeaturing IntellinderTM Sensor and Global ShieldTM Advanced Rod Coatings

Parker’s Global Shield coating features a sub-micron structure (shown here magnified 4000 times) that eliminates surface micro-cracks and delamination.

Parker’s Global Shield™ rod coating technology was specifically designed to address corrosion resistance requirements of challenging industrial applications.Combined with our internal rod coating capabilities, Global Shield is immediately available to upgrade your Parker cylinder performance.

Global Shield™ Rod Coating Technology

This breakthrough proprietary technology, owned and manufactured by Parker Hannifin Corporation, has been thoroughly tested in the lab and in the field to validate performance in the areas of corrosion and dynamic wear resistance. Cylinders protected with Parker’s Global Shield coating have demonstrated resistance to corrosion up to eight times longer than conventional coatings. Comprehensive testing data is available from your Parker technical representative.

Performance Validated in the Lab and in the Field

Indentation / Delamination Testing When compared to Hard Chrome and using the Rockwell “C” Indentation Test protocol, Parker’s Global Shield coating exhibited exceptional interfacial adhesion and outstanding impact resistance, with almost no micro-cracking, chipping, spalling and delamination.

Hard Chrome

Global Shield Coating

When compared to traditional rod coatings, Global Shield™ has the following advantages:• Significantly Improved Corrosion Resistance from the single-layer, fully-dense,

submicron structure and the lack of micro-cracks inherent to chrome plating • Lower Friction • Ductile and Tough so when the rod bends, it does too• Engineered Hardness (HRC 54 minimum) for wear-resistance

The value that you will receive from Global Shield™ includes:• Less Downtime from reduced maintenance intervals (cylinder repairs

and seal replacements)• Longer Seal Life in corrosive environments• Lower Service Costs since you won’t need to replace the piston rod due to corrosion

Although a superior rod coating on its own, it may also be an economic alternative to corrosion resistant steels (i.e. stainless steel) when applied to carbon steel. However, like all coatings, rod end machining would expose the carbon steel substrate, so additional measures would be necessary for protection of the exposed section. In addition, some cylinder applications require high strength stainless steel (ASTM A564 Type 630, or 17-4 PH stainless steel) for tensile strength and fatigue resistance, so please contact us for guidance on material substitution.

Environmentally Safe – the Global Shield™ edge• No Chromium in the coating

or process• RoHS Compliant (Directive 2011/65/EU)• No Hexavalence and no hazardous

waste stream• No PEL (Personal Exposure Limits) concerns

Availability• Rod Diameters all standard sizes• Rod Lengths to 10’, Consult Factory for longer lengths• Standard thickness − .001" (25µ)

Up to 0.020" (500µ) available; corrosion protection increases as the thickness increases

• Standard substrate − 1045/1050 carbon steel• Other substrates available

“Global ShieldTM plating system displayed superior corrosion resistance compared to hard chrome. Global ShieldTM cylinders lasted over three times as long as hard chrome in cyclic exposure testing”

Naval Surface Warfare Center Tested

Performance Tested and Proven The Laboratory Evaluation of Global Shield [Coating] as a Hard Chrome Replacement on USMC Vehicles, published in August 2014, concluded that hydraulic cylinders plated with Parker’s Global Shield coating dramatically outperformed hard chrome in corrosion-resistance testing, while performing similarly to or better than hard chrome in adhesion, impact-resistance, and wear-resistance testing. Independent laboratory testing by National Exposure Testing, Inc., as summarized to the right, is currently being field-validated in military and other challenging applications around the world.

Seal Friction AnalysisWhen the friction forces of single-lip and double-lip piston rod seals were tested at run-in conditions, the seals on rods plated with Parker’s Global Shield coating exhibited significantly less frictional drag in comparison with those plated with hard chrome, virtually eliminating stick-slip conditions for improved wear and fail-safe field performance. Lower frictional forces mean extended service, as exhibited in dynamic, accelerated wear tests in which rods plated with Parker’s Global Shield coating outperformed rods plated with hard chrome 2:1 in leak-free cycles.
