SILVER PLATING SERVICES
Silver plating is best used for applications in electronics and engineering where suitable solderable surfaces and good corrosion resistance are required; for high electrical and thermal conductivity in electrical contacts, thermo-compression bonding, sound reproduction applications, electrical applications that require spectral reflectivity, and other types of electronic applications. As it is not a rare, naturally occurring metal, silver oxidizes quickly, but out of all the metals, it is the one that is the most electrically and thermally conductive.
ProPlate® regularly silver plates components for the medical & dental industries, energy & technology, telecommunications, semiconductors & electronics, oil & gas, and government & aerospace industries.
