What products are zinc-cobalt plating used for?
Q: What parts do you recommend for Suzuki Kobalt? A: Suzuki Kobalt plating is recommended for applications where there is no rubbing during use, particularly for small, complex-shaped products when you want to plate at a low cost.
What is the difference between black nickel plating and other black plating?
Q: What is the difference from other black coatings? A: Generally, it is cheaper than other black coatings, but it tends to discolor quickly and has a large variation in color tone, so its applications can be considered limited.
What is the difference between electroplating and hot-dip galvanizing?
Q: What is the difference between electroplating and hot-dip galvanizing? A: Electroplated zinc is a type of plating that uses electrical action to deposit metal dissolved in the plating solution onto the product. Hot-dip galvanizing involves immersing the product in molten zinc to adhere the metal to it. Since it is easier to achieve a thicker coating with hot-dip galvanizing, it is often applied to steel structures for corrosion protection against salt damage.
What are the suitable applications for zinc plating?
Q: What are the suitable applications for zinc plating? A: The main application of zinc plating is rust prevention (anti-corrosion) for steel parts, but we can also perform zinc plating on zinc alloy die castings and aluminum alloy die castings (with trivalent chromate and black chromate options available). Please feel free to consult us.
![Is a thicker zinc plating better? [Corrosion resistance]](https://image.mono.ipros.com/public/product/image/90f/2000810542/IPROS23463826395928023389.png?w=280&h=280)
Is a thicker zinc plating better?
Q: Is it better for the zinc plating to be thicker? A: Generally, thicker zinc plating improves resistance to red rust. However, resistance to white rust does not depend on the thickness of the zinc plating, but rather on the performance of the chromate treatment coating.
Can aluminum materials be galvanized with zinc at Silvec?
Q: Can aluminum materials be galvanized with zinc? A: Yes, we can. We perform zinc galvanizing on aluminum die castings and aluminum lost wax products, among others.
Is it possible to nickel plate aluminum die-cast (ADC12) material with barrel plating at Silvec?
Q: Is it possible to apply aluminum nickel plating to aluminum die-cast (ADC12) material using barrel plating? A: Yes, it is possible. Our company has extensive experience with barrel nickel plating on aluminum die-cast ADC12. There are no issues with barrel plating aluminum nickel plating on ADC12.
Please tell me the minimum thickness, maximum thickness, and recommended thickness for solderable nickel plating.
Q: Please tell me the minimum thickness, maximum thickness, and recommended thickness for solderable nickel plating (electrolytic nickel plating for soldering). A: To achieve solder wetting properties equivalent to tin plating, a minimum of 3μm and a recommended thickness of 5μm is required. However, even if the thickness exceeds 5μm, the solder wetting properties remain "unchanged," so for barrel-plated solderable nickel, we specify a thickness of 3 to 6μm as per the drawings.
Can solderable nickel plating be done with jigs or in a barrel?
Q: Can solderable nickel plating be done with both jigs and barrels? A: Yes, it is possible. Our company has both jig plating lines (static bath plating lines) and barrel plating lines (rotating plating lines) for electric nickel plating "solderable nickel plating," which has solder wettability equivalent to tin plating. We can provide samples for solder wettability evaluation tests, so please feel free to contact us.
Can you specify the gloss level for solderable nickel plating, such as bright nickel or semi-bright nickel?
Q: Can the gloss level of solderable nickel plating (electrolytic nickel plating for soldering) be specified, such as glossy nickel or semi-glossy nickel? A: It cannot achieve a super glossy finish like a mirror. The determination of gloss level is up to the customer, but management from a slight gloss to semi-gloss is possible.
Please tell me the correlation between the "film thickness" and "solder wettability" of solderable nickel plating.
Q: Please tell me the correlation between the thickness of solderable nickel plating and solder wettability. A: Below 3μm, the original performance cannot be achieved. A thickness of around 5μm provides stable and good solder wettability. Even if the thickness increases beyond 5μm, the solder wettability remains the same as at 5μm.
Is there a comparison table of soldering performance for solderable nickel plating and other types of plating?
Q: Is there a comparison table of soldering performance between solderable nickel plating and other types of plating? A: The results of solder wetting evaluation tests conducted using the wetting balance method (equilibrium method) for various platings are included in our document "Soldering Performance Test Data."
Can nickel plating be done on complex-shaped SUS304 (stainless steel) parts using barrel plating?
Q: Can barrel plating be done for complex-shaped SUS304 (stainless steel) parts? A: Yes, barrel plating can be done. Barrel plating for products that are prone to entanglement or bending is one of our specialties. Please feel free to consult with us.
Electroindium plating solution
Indium (In) is a metal that easily diffuses into various metals and has excellent alkali resistance, with characteristics such as a low melting point (156°C). In plating has good corrosion resistance against organic acids in lubricating oils, and its load-bearing capacity, wear resistance, and seizure resistance are outstanding, making it widely used for surface treatments such as bearings. DAIN IN-161PL is an electroplating solution based on organic sulfonic acid. It produces a uniform and fine-particle white coating. The stability of the plating solution over time is also good, and bath management is easy.
Electroplated tin
Gold-tin alloy shows a eutectic point at an Au/Sn composition of 80/20 (wt%), with a melting point of 280°C. This alloy is non-oxidizing, has good solderability, low resistivity, and improved creep characteristics, lubrication, and wear resistance, making it suitable as a high-temperature joining material for high-frequency devices such as mobile phones, optoelectronic packages, mounted components, optical communication components, as well as for protective element materials, sliding parts, and decorative items. Many gold-tin alloy materials are produced in the form of ribbons or pellets metallurgically, but issues have arisen that make them difficult to apply to narrow pitches associated with high-density mounting. This plating bath allows for barrel plating of micro parts, enabling the production of a uniform eutectic composition plating film.
