Why Nickel Plating?
Nickel plating looks Great! And when taken to a molecular level transfers heat efficiently as well as provides excellent anti-corrosive properties. Nickel is less expensive than gold yet harder and more resistant. Techniques: Soldering: Soldering is a process in which two or more metal items are joined together adhesively, by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint, the filler metal having a relatively low melting point. Soft soldering is characterized by the melting point of the filler metal, which is below 400 °C (800 °F).[1] The filler metal used in the process is called solder. Soldering is distinguished from brazing by use of a lower melting-temperature filler metal; it is distinguished from welding by the base metals not being melted during the joining process. In a soldering process, heat is applied to the parts to be joined, causing the solder to melt and be drawn into the joint by capillary action and to bond to the materials to be joined by wetting action.
