Forms a Protective Barrier
Many types of industrial electroplating create a barrier on the substrate that protects it against atmospheric conditions such as corrosion.
Plated parts can last longer and need to be replaced less frequently, and are more likely to hold up under extreme conditions.
Enhances Appearance
Jewelry is often plated with a thin layer of a precious metal to make it more lustrous and attractive to potential buyers.
Manufacturers have a cost-effective way to make products more aesthetically appealing. Jewelers can sell products that look like pure gold or other precious metals at a much lower price.
Reduces Friction
Nickel plating can reduce the build-up of friction in certain materials such as electrical connectors.
Nickel plating improves performance and reduces premature wear and tear.
Conducts Electricity
Plating with silver can enhance electrical conductivity, making it a highly-effective process for the manufacturing of electronics and electrical components.
It is a cost-effective and efficient conductivity solution.
Absorbs Excess Hydrogen
Plating with palladium can absorb excess oxygen that commonly results during the manufacturing of catalytic converters for automobiles.
This can improve catalytic converter performance.
Prevents Formation of Whiskers
A zinc-nickel alloy can prevent the formation of sharp protrusions known as whiskers that can occur during certain types of manufacturing operations.
Damage caused by arcing and shorts in electrical parts and components due to whiskers breaking away from materials can be significantly reduced.
