Electroless Nickel

Application/Usage

  • Solder
  • Hardness
  • Uniformity of coating density
  • Wear and abrasion resistance properties
  • Magnetic and non-magnetic properties
  • Varying levels of thickness specifications
  • Range of plating materials, metallic and non-metallic attributes
  • Adhesion
  • High lubricity
  • Amorphous deposition
  • Preplate for precious metal plating

Phosphorous Level

By specifying a Low, Medium or High phosphorous content, we can control the level of corrosion and wear resistance.

  • Low Phosphorous Electroless Nickel (1 - 4%) 58-62 RCH, compressively stressed, excellent wear resistance, melting point 1200 C and recommended for Alkaline Environment.
  • Medium Phosphorous Electroless Nickel (5 - 9%) heat treatable to 62 RCH, bright appearance, excellent lubricity and recommended for Acid and Alkaline Environment.
  • High Phosphorous Electroless Nickel (10 - 13%) is non-magnetic, ductile, readily soldered and recommended for the most severe Acid Environment
