Nickel Plating
Nickel plating is a galvanic treatment that offers high hardness and significant corrosion resistance. This process creates a uniform protective layer on metallic components, ensuring low electrical contact resistivity that remains stable over time.
Ideal for industrial applications where high quality and durability are required, Supergalvanica's chemical nickel plating ensures homogeneous thickness distribution of the deposit. It is often used as an underlayer for gold plating, silver plating, and tinning treatments.
Technical Characteristics
Chemical Nickel Plating
The nickel plating treatment is performed using an acidic bath that deposits a uniform nickel-phosphorus alloy. The initial deposit hardness is 550 Vickers, which can reach up to 950 Vickers through a heat treatment of one hour at 400°C. The resulting surface appearance can be semi-glossy or glossy, depending on the base material, while the final color is silver-gray.
Electrolytic Nickel Plating (Sulfamate)
Treatment that allows obtaining semi-glossy and glossy deposits characterized by exceptional ductility and good corrosion resistance. Additionally, it presents very low internal stresses, significantly reducing the phenomenon of "stress-corrosion".
