Hi,
My boss is getting nickel coatings on metal springs with the thickness of 5 mils.
This is only 0.005". My boss thinks getting nickel plate coating on springs will increase the stiffness.
However, I am not so sure if 0.005" of nickel coating will have any significant impact on the spring stiffness.
The springs are only 1.7" tall and have 1.1" outer diameter.
Can anyone give me thoughts on this?
