What does Nickel-Strike do?
Nickel-Strike prepares steels and stainless steels for galvanization. It is also known as strike nickel and is suitable for electroless plating and all galvanic processes.
Nickel-Strike etches the surface of the material and dissolves any chromium that may be present. During this process, a base layer of nickel is formed, which ensures better adhesion of the subsequent layers.
Another important application is the pretreatment of nickel-plated surfaces that have been exposed to air for a long time. In these cases, Nickel-Strike removes the existing oxide layer, which has a negative effect on the result.
