Why Nadcap Plating?
Plating is called out when a component requires a level of performance that the base alloy or substrate alone cannot deliver. This may be enhanced corrosion protection, better wear life, or improved abrasion resistance. An OEM can use less expensive or lighter-weight base alloys and couple it with plating to achieve superior performance over vastly more expensive alloy selections. What sets Wolkerstorfer Company apart from other platers is that we are certified for Nadcap Plating. What makes Nadcap Plating different is the amount of documentation and training required to handle to strictest requirements of the defense and aerospace industries. We also offer Nadcap painting and Nadcap testing to help you with your other needs.
When to Use Nadcap Plating:
