APT offers loose-piece barrel, rack and vibratory electroless nickel plating on nearly any metallic substrate including nearly any ferrous, cupreous and aluminum alloys as well as many exotic alloys. APT provides electroless nickel plating within a variety of\u00a0<a style=\"color: white;\" href=\"https:\/\/advancedplatingtech.com\/about-apt\/industries-serviced\/\">technically-focused industries<\/a>\u00a0including the medical, oil &amp; gas, power transmission\/distribution and defense industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: white;\">Electroless nickel plating is a process that codeposits a nickel-phosphorous alloy without need for an externally applied electrical current. The electroless nickel plating process occurs from a chemical reduction of the nickel ions within the electroless nickel solution onto a metallic substrate rather than deposition of the ions from an applied current. As a result, the electroless nickel deposit is free of many of the problems associated with traditional electrolytic nickel including edge buildup and non-uniform coating. Electroless nickel deposits are extremely uniform, corrosion and erosion resistant and provide excellent lubricity. These properties make electroless nickel the third-most common plated industrial finish after zinc and chrome. In addition, the benefits of electroless nickel make it an excellent choice as an underplate for finishes such as gold, silver or tin plating.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7379&#8243;

font-size: 14px;\">Electroless nickel plating is a unique plating process that does not require an external source of electrons for deposition like traditional electrolytic plating. Rather, electroless nickel deposits a nickel-phosphorous alloy by a chemical reduction (reaction) from sodium hypophosphite on a catalytic substrate without the application of external current. Since there is no applied current during deposition, electroless nickel plating deposits are free from the common nonuniformity of traditional electrolytic deposits and can cover even extremely complex geometries with excellent uniformity. See <a style=\"color: white;\" href=\"https:\/\/advancedplatingtech.com\/electroless-nickel-plating-services\/electroless-nickel-plating-vs-electrolytic-nickel-plating\/\">Electroless Nickel Plating vs Electrolytic Nickel Plating<\/a> for additional information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: white; font-size: 14px;\">Any portion of a part that is equally wetted by the electroless nickel solution will plate uniformly including interior or ID features. It is important to note that continual solution flow is required to maintain consistent deposition rates. As such, blind holes small inner diameters of tubing or fittings can have reduced plating thickness. The codeposited phosphorus in the electroless nickel plating deposit increases the lubricity over that of traditional nickel plating and the percentage of phosphorus in the coating also affects deposit properties such as magnetism, corrosion resistance and hardness. In addition, a post-plate baking at temperatures above 500F can transition electroless nickel deposits from an amorphous as-plated state to a crystalline structure, greatly increasing hardness.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221;
