Purpose

This specification covers the requirements for brush plating of medium-hardness, low stress nickel by electrodeposition.

Application

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