Chemical nickel

Also called electroless or autocatalysis nickel is a chemical process in which a surface is furnished with a nickel and phosphorous coating. This coating is, amongst others, applied to high-quality technical parts and machine components. CZL Tilburg is the specialist in chemical nickel.

Through high-quality processes, we have delivered extremely evenly spread phosphorous nickel for decades. We nickel almost every (base)material, such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper and bronze. The material will be pre-treated to remove dirt, to activate the material and to create a surface as clean and suitable as possible.

Uniform coating thickness

Electroless nickel is extremely suited for complex shapes which are impossible to process galvanically and products that need a very precise layer thickness. The big advantage compared to electronical (galvanically) processing is the uniform layer thickness with high precision, in which properties such as corrosion protection, wear-prevention and the ability to mechanically process are ensured. Additionally, we work with different electroless nickel coatings: low, middle, and high phosphorus and nickel-chrome combinations.
