Nickel Plating Aluminum

Corrosion resistance over 500 hours of salt spray is possible.

Nickel plating aluminum.

A nickel plated coating will increase the hardness of the aluminum alloy substrate and increase corrosion resistance. Sulfamate nickel plating provides good corrosion resistance and improved hardness of aluminum. Silver also provides good lubricity and solderability. It can increase the hardness and thus the durability of mechanical parts and tools.

Brake clutch levers. Sulfamate nickel excels in applications where brazing is required offering excellent wetting of the nickel surface. Common applications of nickel chrome on aluminum include. For example most fancy nickel chrome plated wheels are aluminum and pressure castings no less much more difficult than pure aluminum.

Decorative nickel chrome plating on aluminum alloys has been a reliable commercial process since the late 1960 s when improvements were made in the zincate process. Electroless nickel plating aluminum is a process for chemically applying nickel alloy deposits onto aluminum substrates using an auto catalytic immersion process without the use of electrode. Nickel plating can be used for a variety of different things. It is frequently used in food processing to prevent contamination with iron.

The energy and power distribution industries rely in silver electroplating of aluminum to improve corrosion protection and surface conductivity. Electroless nickel provides excellent hardness lubricity and wear resistance. On the other hand aluminum is certainly successfully plated.
