On top of semi-glossy nickel plating (which improves corrosion resistance) and glossy nickel plating (which adds a shiny appearance), a layer of special nickel plating is applied to achieve high corrosion resistance and silver appearance.

Features
Features 1Improved corrosion resistance through sacrificial dissolution
Bright nickel is less corrosion resistant
than semi-bright nickel due to the effects of additives.
Therefore, the bright nickel plating layer guarantees corrosion resistance through sacrificial dissolution, preventing corrosion of the semi-bright nickel plating and retarding the corrosion of material.
Further improved corrosion resistance with microporous plating
After applying nickel plating containing non-conductive fine particles over the glossy nickel plating, adding a layer of chrome plating creates a film with a large number of pores.
This plating, called microporous plating, can disperse the corrosion current between the layers of nickel plating, which can improve corrosion resistance.
Beautiful appearance
Because it uses a glossy nickel base, you can get a beautiful silver-white chrome look while maintaining its luster.
