Nickel coatings are very functional due to high corrosion and wear resistance, high surface hardness, and natural lubricity. Therefore particularly useful for many different applications in a wide range of industries.

Electroless nickel plating is an autocatalytic process, that is why no electricity, or anode, is needed for the process. Even the surfaces with complex gemetries can be plated uniformly. As the solution comes into contact with the part, it envelopes the entire piece, penetrating even the deepest details.

As usual proper pre-treatment is essential to effective adhesion of electroless nickel plating. combination of several alkaline and acid cleaning solutions can be used to activate the surface before electroless nickel plating. Depending on the customer’s needs, one of several electroless nickel plating baths can be integrated for the application.

 

Characteristic Eigenschaften:

• High corrosion prevention by even low layer thickness  

• Abrasion resistance properties

• Decorative surfaces

• Nickel plated surfaces has also high gloss

 

Using on the parts provide years of wipe clean service without any spray wax protection.
