Electroless Nickel Plating Services
Electroless nickel plating is a procedure that deposits an alloy of nickel-phosphorus onto the surface of a metal. This is chemical just, so does not entail the use of power.
Electroless Nickel Plating
Electroless nickel plating (ENP of NiP) is a response that deposits a nickel-phosphorus alloy onto the surface of a metal. It utilizes a totally chemical reaction to generate plating and does not take advantage of electrical power. Though this process takes much longer than electroplating, benefits are a more consistent thickness over even one of the most complicated surface areas (because of not having to rely upon differing electrical areas), in addition to remarkable wear and deterioration resistance.
| Surface Preparation | Applicable materials | Cosmetic availability | Thickness | Visual appearance |
| Smooth machined (Ra 1.6μm) | Steel, Aluminum | No | 3μm to 40μm | Electroless nickel plated parts will have a smooth, semi-bright appearance. |

Electroless Nickel Plating Process
Electroless nickel plating is a wear, abrasion, and rust-resistant coating that is compatible with aluminum, stainless steel, and light steel.
Here’s how to apply electroless nickel plating:
- Components are first washed and degreased to eliminate any kind of impurities, cleansing away any oil or oil.
- After cleansing is finished, the substratum is turned on with another chemical, an acid, to eliminate oxides and trigger the surface area.
- Components are dipped in the plating chemical service, transferring the nickel-phosphorus alloy on the components till the desired density is reached
Electroless Nickel Plating Design Considerations
Masking: Electroless nickel plating does not have a significant dimensional impact, therefore masking parts is not necessary.
