For over 40 years Rochester Overnight Plating, LLC has been providing electroless nickel plating services to industries ranging from automotive to medical, suitable for a number of applications. This technique provides hardness as well as superior resistance to corrosion, abrasion, and wear. We are able to plate cold rolled steel, brass, copper, and 304 stainless parts sized up to 45″ x 36″ and weighing up to 400 lbs. A full pre-treatment process is employed including cleaning and muriatic acid. This service does not involve the use of electricity, allowing for the uniform coating of complex geometries. Available plating materials we offer include mid-phosphate electroless nickel and brite dip. We also offer passivation of certain stainless steels. Please contact us for a complete list of these steels.

We provide a full range of in house testing including non-destructive x-ray testing, tape testing as well as thorough inspections both visual and using calibrated equipment. High quality is our top priority and our initiatives to that end include certifying to quality control systems set by companies Kodak, GM, and Harris, as well as meeting the stringent processes mandated by Mil-Spec, RoHS, ASTM, QS 9000, and ISO 14001. We excel in meeting client needs at affordable prices and expedited lead times. For more details about our electroless nickel plating services or our other capabilities, please see the table below or contact us directly.

Rochester Overnight Plating will be adding Iriditing services in the near future. Check back soon for more details.
