Default Hydrogen Embrittlement with Copy Cad

Hello,

Reading through the plating manual, I noticed a discussion of hydrogen embrittlement in the context of hard chrome plating. I'm wondering if the same issue applies to Copy Cad?

I've plated a number of grade 8 suspension bolts using an acid pickle to remove old plating. I did not bake the parts to remove any hydrogen. I'm wondering if I should replace those bolts with new ones just to be safe?

Thanks,

Ed
