More About Bright Nickel
Bright Nickel plating is celebrated for its decorative qualities, thanks to its ability to level and cover imperfections in the base metal. This process delivers a smooth, lustrous finish while providing excellent wear resistance, outperforming softer metals like copper or zinc in demanding applications.
In addition to its durability, nickel’s magnetic properties make it suitable for magnetization applications. The low-stress nature of Bright Nickel plating also makes it ideal for industries like aerospace and electroforming, where minimizing stress on components is critical.
