ELECTROLESS NICKEL

Suitable for a variety of alloy, ferrous, and non-ferrous substrates, electroless nickel coatings offer high durability, lubricity, and wear resistance properties. In addition to conventional Ni-P systems, we also offer hard and soft particle composite matrix systems with enhanced engineering properties. These coatings incorporate nanoparticles into a matrix of nickel phosphorus to increase specific performance properties in comparison to standard EN dispersion coatings.
