Nickel/gold
With a high electric conductance is nickel/gold plating, or hard gold, useful for contactability with a low transition resistance.
It is also excellent for corrosion protection width a hardness on 160 HV.
Specifications (Datasheet)
Nickel/gold plating
Properties: | High electric conductance. Excellent corrosion protection. |
Appearance: | Golden, shiny surface. |
Base material: | Copper, brass, steel, stainless steel, aluminium, and tin bronze. Nickel plating serves as a barrier layer against the substrate. |
Application: | Contactability. Low transition resistance. |
References: | Nickel/gold plating is also referred to as hard gold as the gold has been alloyed with 0.2 % nickel or with 0.2 % cobalt. |
