Corrosion resistance is the characteristics of a material to resist deterioration of the material due to chemical reactions with its surroundings. Our coating is amorphous and has no crystal structure. Durabide® coating is applied chemically in a carefully controlled environment. This assures that the coating is free of voids, thus providing enhanced corrosion protection to the base material.

Nickel is essentially inert in most corrosive conditions. Parts that need high corrosion protection are normally applied with a minimum of 1 mil undercoat of plain electroless nickel coating. Corrosion resistance is normally measured using a salt fog test.

Our product with undercoat will pass 1000 hrs of a salt fog test whereas hard chrome will fail before 100 hrs. We also offer Special PTFE(Teflon) treatment for enhanced corrosion protection.
