Copper Plating

Copper Plating

Copper Plating is electrolytic plating that deposits a layer of copper onto the substrate. This process is typically used to provide an anti-seize surface, as a mask to prevent carburizing on surfaces during heat treating, and to enhance solderability. Copper plating can be used as an under plate for difficult to plate alloys as well as electromagnetic shielding.
