Electroless Nickel Plating Excellence
Delivering uniform, high-performance coatings with exceptional hardness, corrosion resistance, and wear protection — without the limitations of electroplating.
At SM Finishes, our electroless nickel plating service uses advanced autocatalytic deposition technology to produce consistent coatings over complex geometries, blind holes, and sharp edges. This process ensures a uniform layer thickness without the need for electrical current, making it ideal for applications where precision, performance, and reliability are critical. From aerospace components to precision machinery, our solutions deliver superior surface protection and functional performance.
Why Our Electroless Nickel Plating Stands Out
Our process combines controlled bath chemistry, precise temperature regulation, and skilled process management to produce coatings with predictable hardness, excellent adhesion, and exceptional corrosion resistance.
- Over complex shapes
- High wear resistance
- Superior corrosion
- Enhanced lubricity
- Excellent adhesion
- Internal surfacese
In addition to superior corrosion and wear resistance, our electroless nickel plating process offers outstanding dimensional control, making it ideal for tight-tolerance engineering applications. The ability to deposit coatings with controlled phosphorus content allows us to tailor properties such as hardness, ductility, and magnetic response to meet specific performance requirements.
Precision & Craftsmanship
Every electroless nickel-coated part is produced under tightly monitored conditions, ensuring consistent results and a flawless finish, regardless of shape or size.
Applications
Electroless nickel plating is extensively used in aerospace, oil and gas, electronics, automotive, and precision engineering industries, offering both protective and functional benefits for critical components.
