-
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.

Hard Anodising for electrical insulation
Hard anodising produces an electrically insulating film, so is ideal for the semi-conductor industry. If electrical conductivity is required over certain areas we can mask these off prior to processing.Request a Quote Supplied by Macro Developments (Portsmouth) Ltd -
Hard Anodising for wear resistance
To increase the wear resistance of hard anodising, you need to increase the thickness of the aluminium oxide film , this makes the coating lubricated and hard wearing, and is best suited for items that continually come in contact with each other like ball joints. and is ideal for the engineering industry.

Zinc Plating
Zinc is primarily used as a coating for steel and provides excellent corrosion protection, although it can be plated onto other metals.
Thicknesses of up to 25 microns are normal and passivation treatments make the plating resistant to finger marking, while also providing a good base for painting.
The passivation finishes include Clear, Colour (iridescent), Black and Olive drab.Request a Quote Supplied by Macro Developments (Portsmouth) Ltd
