Application Skills of Nickel Plating in Automobile Industry

Whether at home or abroad, the development of electroless nickel plating has gradually increased, and it is estimated that its development in different applications will reach a higher level in the near future. So how is electroless nickel plating applied in the automotive industry? Below I will introduce it to you.

The advantage of applying electroless nickel plating in the automotive industry is very average. It is maintained by electroless plating on parts with complex shapes, such as gears, radiators and fuel injectors. Aluminum heat sinks coated with an electroless nickel layer of about 10um have Good brazing properties. The size error of the gears after electroless plating is very easy to keep within ±0.3-0.5um. If the electroplating process is used, the machining must be stopped after plating to reach the qualified tolerance range.

The electroless nickel plating layer used on the fuel injector can provide good resistance to fuel corrosion and wear. Usually, fuel corrosion and wear will lead to the expansion of the fuel injection hole, thus increasing the fuel injection volume and making the engine horsepower of the car. Exceed the design specification, accelerate the damage of the engine. The electroless nickel plating layer can effectively avoid the corrosion and wear of the fuel injector, and improve the reliability and service life of the engine.

It is a major application of electroless nickel plating in the automotive industry. It handles the problems of ethanol, gasoline and other pigments very well, and also promotes the development of the automotive industry. In addition to its performance, it can also deal with the corrosion problem of the fuel system. In the middle, electroless nickel plating can be used as a vaporizer to maintain its appearance.
