About the Process

Nickel plating is a process used to electroplate a thin layer of nickel onto a metal part. This plating can be used for corrosion and wear resistance, as well as for decorative purposes.

A nickel anode is then dissolved into the solution and deposited onto the part, which acts as the cathode in the reaction.
