Nickel Plating - Electroless

Mil-C-26074 all Classes & Grades; AMS 2404

Electroless nickel is a plating process which deposits an even layer of a nickel-phosphorous alloy on a part. It's properties include corrosion resistance, hardness, and abrasion resistance. A typical thickness of plating varies from 0.000050" to 0.002" thick. The beauty of this process as compared to electrolytic processes is that the coating builds up evenly on all surfaces the solution touches with adequate circulation.

Our process deposits approximately a 92% nickel/8% phosporous coating which is considered a "mid-range" alloy. Other processes with less phosphorous produce coatings with less corrosion resistance and more hardness and process with more phosphorous produce coatings with more corrosion resistance and less hardness.

Our electroless nickel deposit as plated has a hardness of about 45 Rc and it can be baked to produce a hardness between 50 and 55 Rc.

Electroless nickel is used on molds, machine parts, valves, aircraft, . . . We can plate it on aluminum alloys, nickel alloys, steel alloys and copper alloys.
