Galvanising

In galvanisation, zinc is applied to steel or iron to prevent rusting. The whole process can be called galvanisation or galvanisation but galvanising is the most common term in the industry. The zinc coating protects scratching and corrosion by providing a top layer. The most common types of zinc galvanisation are Zinc electroplating, Mechanical plating, Sherardising, Continuously galvanised sheet, Continuously galvanised wire, Galvanised pipe and tube, General or hot dip galvanising, Zinc metal spraying. The most common method of galvanising is hot-dip galvanising, which involves submerging parts in a bath of molten zinc. Galvanised steel is widely used in applications where corrosion resistance is needed without the cost of stainless steel.

    Black Nickel Plating

    • Black Nickel can be plated onto any metal and produces a thin jet black finish. It is suitable for applications that require a non reflective surface

    • The thickness of the coating is less than 3 microns so if corrosive protection is required an undercoat of Zinc or Nickel plating  will be necessary

    • Black nickel plating results in a dense black finish onto any metal - it is ideal for parts where a non-reflective surface is required.
