GOLD PLATING

Galvanic treatments

Gold plating is an electrolytic process used mainly for its excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance properties. This treatment is particularly popular in industrial applications requiring reliability and high performance, such as electronic components and electrical contacts.

Gold plating ensures low contact resistance, reducing wear and prolonging component life. An electrolytic nickel substrate is usually used to prevent migration of the gold plating coating.

Gold plating is also used in other industries, such as printed circuit boards, electrical contacts, semiconductors, rectifiers, reflectors, tubes, electronic components, reactor parts, satellites where galvanic treatment takes on technical purposes.

The chemical-physical and mechanical properties of gold-plated surfaces in mutual contact and sliding with others, assume great importance in all equipment in which friction, wear and lubrication phenomena occur.

WE CERTIFY THE THICKNESS AND HARDNESS OF THE DEPOSITS ON THE SURFACES WE TREAT.

Gold plating on steel

Direct gilding on steel is also called stainless steel free gilding as it does not require a nickel substrate. Doratura Manerbiese performs gilding on steel for plates, sheets, profiles and frames.

Thickness gilding

Thickness gilding is a galvanic treatment.
It is not a flash deposit, but a micron deposit and it is indicated to increase resistance and improve its high conductivity. It is used to coat electrical metal parts, electrical metal contacts and therefore mainly for metal parts used in the electronic sector.
