Plating Services

Precision finishing for industrial parts.

Choose the right process for improved appearance, corrosion resistance, cleanliness, durability, and performance.

Electropolishing

Electropolishing is a controlled electro-chemical process that smooths, deburrs, polishes, and brightens metallic surfaces.

  • Common for stainless steel and aluminum
  • Improves corrosion resistance
  • Creates a clean, bright, uniform finish
  • Helps improve cleanability and surface quality

Electroless Nickel

Electroless nickel plating deposits a dense nickel phosphorus alloy coating with controlled thickness and uniform coverage.

  • Uniform coating on complex shapes
  • Excellent corrosion protection
  • Improved wear resistance and hardness
  • Suitable for steel, stainless, aluminum, brass, and copper

Black Oxide

Black oxide provides a consistent black finish for steel and iron-based parts with cosmetic and functional benefits.

  • Improves cosmetic appearance
  • Increases corrosion resistance
  • No dimensional change
  • Improves lubricity and reduces glare

Surface Buildup & Part Restoration

We build worn or undersize surfaces back up with nickel and return parts to size, reducing the need for replacement and long lead times.

  • Nickel buildup on worn surfaces
  • Restoration to specified dimensions
  • Ask us about your part and requirements
