Traditional electroplating uses electrical current to deposit metal onto a surface. The current concentrates at edges and high points, which means those areas get thicker coatings while recesses, threads, and internal channels get less. On a flat bracket, this process will work. However, on a pump housing with tight internal geometry, this is too much of a problem.
Why High Phosphorus Nickel Plating Is the Best Defense Against Corrosion
If you work in an industry where metal components are constantly fighting against harsh chemicals or acidic environments, you’re probably aware of high phosphorus nickel plating as a solution. But what exactly is it, and why does it outperform other surface coating options? Let’s take a further look.
