Electroless Nickel plating is the process of depositing a layer of nickel and phosphorus alloy onto a metal substrate with the absence of an electrical current. The process allows for the deposit of a uniform coating thickness on irregularly shaped objects or internal dimensions and can be applied to tight tolerances. Electroless Nickel can be used on many base materials, most commonly steel and aluminum.

Paramount Metal Finishing is capable of various Electroless Nickel finishes and we also boast some of the largest tanks in the industry, measuring 10 feet x 5 feet. Currently, we offer Electroless Nickel in a Mid-Phos (6-9% Phosphorus), High-Phos (10%+ Phosphorus) , Mid-Phos Black, and a High-Phos with PTFE.
