At Sterling Impreglon Asia, we’ve been transforming industrial repairs since 1989 with our proprietary Brush Plating process. This innovative, cost-effective solution restores damaged mechanical components and enhances OCTG connections for industries like Oil & Gas, Marine, and Manufacturing. Yet, misconceptions about Brush Plating often prevent businesses from unlocking its full potential. In this article, we’re busting three common myths to show why our Brush Plating process is the smart choice for your repair needs. Let’s set the record straight and explore how we can help you save time, money, and resources.

Myth 1: Copper Plating Lacks Durability

Fact: Our Brush Plating delivers unmatched adhesion for long-lasting repairs.
A common concern is that copper plating peels or flakes under stress. Not with Sterling Impreglon Asia. Our proprietary Brush Plating process creates a molecular bond between the copper layer and the base material, ensuring exceptional durability even in harsh environments. From hydraulic rods to marine diesel engine bedplates, our repairs withstand wear, corrosion, and heavy use. In fact, our process is trusted globally by major oil pipe manufacturers for anti-galling applications on OCTG connections, where reliability is non-negotiable.

Myth 2: Brush Plating Is Too Costly for Routine Repairs

Fact: Brush Plating saves you money compared to part replacement or traditional methods.
Replacing damaged components like hydraulic shafts, printing cylinders, or gearbox assemblies can strain your budget and cause costly downtime. Our Brush Plating process restores parts to their original dimensions quickly—often in hours—eliminating the need for expensive replacements. Whether performed on-site or in our Singapore workshop, our method minimizes labor and logistics costs. For businesses looking to take control of repairs, our Brush Plating Sets offer an affordable in-house solution, maximizing efficiency and savings.

Myth 3: Brush Plating Can’t Handle Complex Repairs

Fact: Our process is versatile enough for any repair, big or small.
Some believe Brush Plating is limited to minor fixes, but that’s far from the truth. Our technology tackles a wide range of damages, from scorelines and corrosion pitting to fretting and wear, on components like hydraulic cylinders, diesel generator bedplates, and engine blocks. We’ve successfully repaired complex machinery both on-site and in our state-of-the-art facility. In the Oil & Gas industry, our Brush Plating is an approved solution for pipe thread anti-galling, trusted by global leaders. No challenge is too big for Sterling Impreglon Asia.
