Electroless Nickel
Nickel plating is an extremely hard finish that provides excellent corrosion resistance and wear characteristics.
Electroless nickel plating is also known as chemical or autocatalytic nickel plating. In contrast to the electroplating technique, electroless plating operates chemically and does not use an external current source.
The electroless nickel plating technique deposits a durable uniform coating on all properly prepared surfaces and deposit thickness is controlled by varying immersion time.
