Connector Plating
Precious and functional metal plating for high-reliability connector contacts.
Overview
Contact resistance and wear life are decided at the plating step. We supply gold, silver and palladium-alloy systems for connector contacts — from high-mating-cycle automotive connectors to fine-pitch board-to-board parts.
- Hard gold and gold-flash systems with controlled porosity
- Silver and palladium-nickel for high-cycle contacts
- Tin and tin-alloy finishes with whisker control
- Selective plating for cost optimization on precious metals
