This standard specifies the requirements for the decorative and protective nickel decachrome and copper ten nickel decachrome electrodeposited coatings on steel, zinc alloys, copper and copper alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys. Several levels of coatings with different thicknesses and types are given, as well as guidelines for the selection of coating levels for coated parts exposed to corresponding service conditions. This standard applies to decorative and protective nickel decachrome and copper ten nickel decachrome electrodeposited coatings on steel, zinc alloys, copper and copper alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys. This standard does not specify the required surface condition of the base metal prior to plating. This standard does not apply to unformed plates, strips, wires, nor does it apply to nickel decachrome or copper ten nickel decachrome electrodeposits on threaded fasteners or seal springs. Note 1 See GB12332 and GB11379 for the requirements of nickel and chromium plating layers for engineering purposes, respectively. 2 See GB/T9798 for the requirements of similar coatings without chrome surface for decorative protection.
