Electroless Nickel

Home / Electroless Nickel
Electroless Nickel plating does not use electric current to produce a deposit, but rather operates chemically. The Electroless process (autocatalytic deposition), deposits a uniform coating regardless of the shape or surface of the part, thus overcoming the difficulty of uniformly plating irregularly shaped parts or components. Electroless Nickel has gained popularity due to its ability to provide uniform coverage with excellent hardness and high lubricity.
