ZINC PRO ZN/NI 200 PROCESS

PROCESS DESCRIPTION

ZINC PRO ZN/NI 200 PROCESS zinc-nickel alkaline system is, ammonia-free and cyanide-free process specifically designed for barrel plating. This low metal alloy bath produces a deposit with superior corrosion protection properties. Our unique alkaline process produces a nickel alloy of 10-15 % with excellent throwing power and uniform alloy deposition across a wide range of current densities. In addition, ZINC PRO ZN/NI 200 PROCESS offers the unique advantage of accepting trivalent clear and superior black (non-silver) trivalent chromate coatings.

NOTE: To optimize the ZN NI 200 Process, the user must have access to X-ray fluorescence to check thickness and percent of nickel in the plated deposit. AA (Atomic Absorption) is required to determine the amount of nickel in the solution.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
  • Zinc nickel alloy deposit containing 10-15 % nickel remains constant across a wide range of current densities.
  • Provides superior corrosion protection (0ver 2000 hours neutral salt spray to red rust with correct thickness and post treatment)
  • Various topcoats can be applied for better corrosion protection and/or torque tension
  • Accepts trivalent clear and superior black (non-silver) chromate coatings.
  • Conforms to many automobile manufacturing specifications, including heat aging requirement.
