About Us

The Honingcraft commitment to quality and service

Honingcraft supplies honed tubing and chrome bar from South Africa. We support hydraulic cylinder manufacturers with materials and surface finishing technology. Our massive stock and variety of precision free cutting steel makes us a preferred supplier to the best hydraulic manufacturers in Africa. We provide honing services which ensure that every barrel is honed to the finest tolerances of smoothness, concentricity and parallelism. Honingcraft operates from a 10,000 m2 factory serviced by a combined 100 tonnes of cranage and a staff complement of 60 employees. We provide precision surface treatment services through our two partner companies:

Honingcraft Moser

Honingcraft Moser specialises in hard chrome plating by electrolysis and precision internal and external grinding to extend the effective lifespan of specialised components like hydraulic cylinder rods, rock drills, mono-pump shafts, automotive press dies, air valves, locomotive engine liners and ships engine liners.

Moser Industries was the first specialist chroming business in South Africa and is a proud part of industrial chroming history and the chrome industry. In 2011, it had 30 employees who shared 500 years of experience in the chroming industry.

Moser is a company built on experience and is a proud part of chrome history and the chrome industry in South Africa. Through Moser Industries, commercial chroming became available to manufacturers in South Africa.
