There are many plating methods; among them, electroless Nickel plating is one of the most commonly used. Electroless Nickel plating is a nickel coating method that involves no electric charge or catalyst. Instead, it utilizes a chemical-reducing agent, i.e., phosphorus, to coat a substrate without any pretreatment.

 ENP provides superior corrosion resistance, lubricity, and wear resistance to metals, along with a host of other ancillary characteristics. ENP is capable of uniformly coating surfaces with stringent tolerance specifications.

 Excel Plating offers its electroless Nickel plating services to customers around Guelph region in Ontario. We're proficient in ENP and fully capable of providing a uniform finish over substrates with the desired thickness.

 Process of Nickel Plating

Like every other metal finishing process, ENP also requires a bit of pretreatment. The pretreatment agents vary as per the substrate type and the component's intended use to be coated.

 Once treated, the substrate is dissolved into a bath consisting of positively charged and dissolved nickel-phosphorus. The substrate draws the positively charged nickel ions, resulting in a coating—no need for an electric current, catalyst, or any filtration process.
