Nidega® chem SeqFlow
The chemical nickel process for precision, protection and function
The chemical nickel process is the ideal solution for components with high requirements in terms of corrosion protection, abrasion resistance and dimensional accuracy. The external current-free deposition process produces an absolutely level coating – even on complex geometries, drill holes and internal contours.
Whether aluminium, brass or iron: with layer thicknesses of 8 to 50 µm, we specifically improve the technical properties of your workpieces – for durable, resilient and functional surfaces.
Depending on the phosphorus content, we offer solutions with magnetic or non-magnetic properties, high hardness or excellent chemical resistance.
The advantages of all Nidega® chem SeqFlow processes
Nidega® chem SeqFlow process at a glance:
Highest performance for aluminium, iron and brass
Aluminium, brass and iron are essential in industrial manufacturing – each material has specific advantages, but also disadvantages when it comes to corrosion protection, wear resistance or chemical resistance. With our Nidega® chem SeqFlow chemical nickel process, we refine these metals specifically for demanding applications – reliably, precisely and economically.
Whether abrasion-resistant and high in hardness, non-magnetic or highly chemically resistant, we offer two specialised coating solutions that are optimally tailored to different material requirements and operating conditions:
Nidega® chem mid P SeqFlow
A compromise between hardness and corrosion protection for your aluminium parts
Nidega® chem high P SeqFlow
Maximum corrosion protection and visually appealing for aluminium, iron and brass
Insights into the layer structure of the processes
Functionality begins with precision in aluminium pre-treatment
Careful pre-treatment is essential for a strong and even chemical nickel coating. Our multi-stage process combines mechanical and chemical cleaning steps with specially tailored activation of the base material. This reliably removes impurities, oxide layers and burrs and prepares the surface specifically for nickel deposition.
Nidega® chem mid P SeqFlow – on Aluminium
Following pre-treatment, a mid-P nickel-phosphorus layer (9% P) is deposited without current – evenly, with few pores and excellent adhesion, even on complex geometries.
Our layer structure ensures long-lasting functionality and high-quality surfaces on aluminium.

Nidega® chem high P SeqFlow – on Aluminium, Iron and Brass Base
The next step in the process involves the electroless deposition of a high-P nickel-phosphorus layer (approx. 11% P) – pore-free, adhesive and with a high-quality appearance.
