Kmec, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Košice, Slovakia Increasing of technical level and reliability of machine products in compliance with the economical and ecological terms belongs to the main trends of the industrial development. During the utilisation of these products there arise their each other contacts and the interaction with the environment. That is the reason for their surface degradation by wear eff ect, corrosion and other infl uences. The chemical nickel-plating allows autocatalytic deposition of nickel from water solutions in the form of coherent, technically very profi table coating without usage of external source of electric current. The research was aimed at evaluating the surface changes after chemical nickel-plating at various changes of technological parameters.
