Galvanic copper plating for your metals (Cu)
Galvanic copper plating is of course one of the many finishing options the Rudolf Clauss GmbH & Co. KG offers. The galvanic copper plating process offers numerous advantages and can be applied to a variety of metals, including steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum and zinc pressure die-casting.
The copper plating of metals offers a number of benefits.
Not only does galvanic copper plating increase the anti-corrosive characteristics, it also improves the electrical conductivity. Furthermore, copper plating can prevent the cold welding of steel. Even if your brass products are already soldering-compatible, galvanic copper plating is a good choice since the plating creates a diffusion barrier.
Spark prevention is another copper plating advantage, which is particularly helpful in explosion protected environments. Regardless of the reason that leads you to decide to opt for galvanic copper plating - the Rudolf Clauss GmbH & Co. KG is an experienced partner who will support you with advice and active involvement.
