NIBORE™ is a proprietary nickel boron coating that offers a superior level of lubricity and release, an excellent level of abrasion and wear resistance, plus an extremely low coefficient of friction. Electroless plating doesn’t require an electric current; thus, NIBORE nickel boron coatings will be even, regardless of the surface.
Explore the additional benefits of NIBORE nickel boron coating for any application.

A custom plastic injection mold manufacturer tested numerous coatings from different platers, but none stopped its beryllium copper mold from leaching into the product. The story was different once they approached Bales. “Bales’ customer service has been fantastic. They are extremely responsive to our needs, turning things around quickly, whether quotes or the plating process.” ~ Rob Zimmerman, Engineering Manager at MOS Plastics Industry
