The so-called nickel plated copper wire refers to the process of coating a layer of nickel element on the surface of pure copper wire by chemical or electroplating methods to improve its performance. Compared to the previous pure copper wire, the presence of nickel plated copper wire has significantly improved its corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and other properties, bringing more convenience to people's production and life.

What is the improvement of nickel plated copper wire

Parts and items made from nickel plated copper wire have better wear resistance, weldability, and hardness, which can better meet the production needs of various parts and items and extend the service life of the products made. At the same time, compared to pure copper wire, nickel plated copper wire has higher stability and stronger passivation ability when placed in air.

What is the purpose of adding wire drawing process when nickel plating on copper wire surface

1. Whether using electroplating or chemical methods to nickel the surface of copper wire, the entire nickel plating process involves wire drawing treatment, which can better improve the density of the copper wire and coating area. If this aspect is not treated, the surface color of the nickel plated copper wire formed will be dull and uneven, affecting the quality of the copper wire.

2. Improve production output and reduce enterprise production costs.

3. Increase the types of copper wires that can be produced. In the process of nickel plating copper wire, for some wire bodies with relatively small diameter requirements, smaller diameter wire bodies can also be obtained by pulling the wire bodies to better meet the practical needs of users. If nickel plating is directly applied to copper wires with very small diameters, it is easy for the wire body to break, affecting the production progress of the entire wire body.
