Electroless Nickel MIL-C-26074 E |
|

Similar to stainless steel in color. Plates uniformly in recesses and cavities (does not build up on edges). Corrosion resistance is good for coatings over .001" thickness. Electroless nickel is used extensively in salvage of mis-matched parts. Also, for inside dimensions and irregular shapes (where assembly tolerances need uniformity provided by "electroless" process).
