Purpose

This specification covers the requirements and process controls for brush plating of hard, low stress nickel by electrodeposition.

Application

This process has been used typically to improve wear resistance and to repair damaged, worn, or mismachined parts in applications requiring hardness, fatigue resistance, and service at temperatures up to 450 °F (232 °C) but usage is not limited to such applications.
