Zinc-Nickel Plating Services

What is Zinc-Nickel Plating?

Zinc-Nickel plating is an advanced electroplating process where a zinc-nickel alloy (typically containing 12–15% nickel) is deposited onto metal surfaces, most commonly steel. This method surpasses traditional zinc plating by providing a robust, high-performance coating designed to significantly enhance corrosion protection and wear resistance. It is widely used in industries requiring exceptional durability, such as automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery.

Benefits & Applications

Zinc-Nickel plating is the preferred choice for components exposed to harsh environments due to its superior properties:

• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Provides protection up to 5 times longer than standard zinc plating, withstanding 1,000+ hours in salt spray tests without red rust.
• High Heat Resistance: Retains protective properties under elevated temperatures, making it ideal for engine and under-hood components.
• Enhanced Hardness: Improves surface hardness, reducing wear and extending component lifespan.
• Environmental Compliance: A safe, eco-friendly alternative to cadmium plating, fully compliant with RoHS and REACH standards.

Key Applications:

• Automotive: Brake systems, fuel lines, and fasteners.
• Aerospace: High-durability parts replacing cadmium.
• Electronics: Connectors and shielding components.
