Zinc-Nickel Alloy

High-performance alloy coating for enhanced corrosion protection

Designed for demanding environments and long-term durability

What is Zinc-Nickel Alloy Plating?

Zinc-Nickel alloy plating is an electroplating process that deposits a controlled alloy of zinc and nickel onto metal substrates. This coating provides significantly improved corrosion resistance compared to conventional zinc coatings, making it suitable for applications exposed to harsh environments and extended service conditions.

Types of XXXXX

Type I

Chromic acid anodizing: thin and flexible; used in aerospace for minimal fatigue impact

Type II

Sulfuric acid anodizing: most common; balances corrosion resistance and cost

Type III

Hardcoat anodizing: thickest and hardest layer; best for industrial and high-wear applications

Characteristics and Benefits

  • Corrosion Resistance: Protective oxide layer prevents oxidation
  • Wear Resistance: Harder surface improves durability
  • Electrical Insulation: Non-conductive barrier ideal for electronic housing
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Can be dyed in a variety of colors for branding or appearance
  • Surface Hardness: Especially high with Type III, enhancing mechanical performance

Common Applications

  • Aerospace and defense components
  • Consumer electronics and enclosures
  • Automotive trim and engine parts
  • Architectural structures
  • Industrial machinery and tooling
