Nickel Chrome Plating
Nickel Chrome Plating
Nickel chrome plating is hard chrome plating over nickel plating. The underlying nickel can be either electroplated sulfamate nickel or electroless nickel. Because a heavy nickel chrome deposit can be made, there is a broad range of thicknesses possible, making this process ideal for the restoration of worn parts or parts that are out of specification.

How does Nickel Chrome Plating Work?
Nickel can be used as a plating material on just about any surface, from today’s innovative plastics to traditional metal surfaces. In electroplating, technicians use an electric current to oxidize the metal flakes and salts that will then coat the product or part. Another option is an autocatalytic reaction that’s called “electroless
- Superior hardness
- Durable thickness
- Low deposition temperature
- Wide range of bases
- Excellent adhesion
- Low friction
- Wear and abrasion resistance
- Corrosion resistance
