Technical surface coating

Surface coating with gold

The gold that we use is mainly used for technical applications in the electrical connector industry and in other sectors that manufacture such precision parts as punched bending parts, turned parts, springs, contact pins, contact sockets and flat pins.

Quality checks and coating thickness measurements are continuously carried out and documented during the coating processes.

Surface coating with silver

Owing to its low electrical resistance, silver or hard silver, is ideal for electrical connectors.

Quality checks and coating thickness measurements are continuously carried out and documented during the coating processes.

Surface coating with copper

With technical surface finishing, electrodeposited copper is mainly used as a base coating between the raw material and intermediate coating, or directly underneath the final coating.

Quality checks and coating thickness measurements are continuously carried out and documented during the coating processes.

Surface coating with nickel

The most common nickel coating is electrodeposited sulfamate nickel, used as a diffusion barrier between the raw material and final coating. This material is also known as “technical nickel”.

Chemically deposited nickel “currentless nickel” is divided into several different types. Different surface hardnesses can be achieved thanks to the different phosphorous contents. The binder galvanic surfaces GmbH range contains both “Mid-Phos” (phosphorous content of 4–7%) and “High-Phos” (9–13%) products.

Electrolytic nickel-phosphorous is deposited under current, like sulfamate nickel. This technical surface coating is a “High-Phos” variant (9–13% phosphorous content).

Quality checks and coating thickness measurements are continuously carried out and documented during the coating processes.

Surface coating with tin

Both shiny and matte tin can be used on components like square pins, solder sockets, solder pins and punched parts.

Quality checks and coating thickness measurements are continuously carried out and documented during the coating processes.
