Galvanic silver plating

Galvanic silver is very ductile and can be used to reduce the contact resistance at high voltage. In addition, the treatment is corrosion-protective and has low friction during adhesive wear.

Galvanic silver plating

Silver can be a good alternative to gold in electronics, as silver offers many of the same advantages as gold in the production of electronic components. Silver, for example, has a better electrical and thermal conductivity. Due to the ability to minimize resistance, silver plating is used for electronics, such as copper parts.

Silver oxidizes over time. To postpone the oxidation process, you can passivate after silver plating.

Silver plating at Chem-Tec Plating is mainly for technical purposes.

Typical layer thickness:

3 – 20µ

Appearance:

Glossy or matte, depending on the substrate.

Application:

Silver is mainly used for electronics, e.g. for corrosion protection, requirements for good conductivity and HF circuits.

Material:

Silver can be coated on most metals, including steel, copper and brass.

Combination coating:

The item is typically coated with either nickel or copper prior to coating with silver. If the item is made in aluminium, it must be coated with chemical nickel before coating with silver.

Suitability:

Silver plating is suitable for surface treatment of electrical components. In this regard, silver has the advantage that it is a solderable material.

Dimensions:

L x W x D: 550mm x 250mm x 550mm

For other sizes, please contact us.

Series size:

Our process plant is built in such a way that we can handle series sizes at all levels, from a single item to many millions.
