Advantages
The ENP1012 nickel plating processes, whether electroless nickel plating, Delsic electroless nickel silicon carbide co-deposition, nickel-PTFE or Sixeal®, enhance surfaces from both the technical-functional and aesthetic viewpoints. The various processes conducted at the Deltar Srl plant (the largest high phosphorus electroless nickel plating facility in the world) are conducted in accordance with the various international standards (ASTM, ISO, NACE, BS, MILLS etc.). The main advantages of the nickel plating processes are listed below:
Advantages of Electroless Nickel Plating
- High corrosion resistance
- Hardness of between 500 +/- 50 and 1000 Hv
- Deposition uniformity
- Absence of point effect
- Resistance to wear
- Non-allergic
- Used in the pharmaceutical and food production sectors
- Weldability
- Electrical conductivity

Advantages of the “D-Shield” treatment
- High corrosion resistance
- Absolute deposition uniformity
- Absence of the "point effect"
- Greater thickness
- Self-repairing
- Absence of broad tolerance ranges on the finished pieces to avoid mechanical friction
