Advantages of Silver Plated Contacts:

1-Silver is the best conductive conductor, and the conductivity of the substrate can be improved after silver plating;

2-Silver inherently has characteristics that make it resistant to microbes and bacterial growth; making items coated safer and more hygienic to use;

3-Silver is resistant to corrosion which helps to extend the life of the plated item;

4-Silver has the highest degree of optical reflectivity of any metal which makes it ideal for items such as medical lasers;

5-Silver is one of the least expensive precious metals and choosing it over other precious metals, such as gold or palladium, can save you quite a bit of money.

Silver Plated Copper Contact is a very popular choice for many industries including medical, electronics, telecommunications, automotive, and many more. Silver plating exhibits excellent anti-galling properties, high lubricity, a wide operating temperature range, good corrosion resistance, and exceptional conductivity.Silver is one of the most common metals used for plating in the medical industry because it boasts a wealth of beneficial qualities plus it is biocompatible and inherently resistant to bacteria. Bimetal Contacts with Silver Plated are also extremely ductile which makes it a great choice for shape-memory devices and high precision instruments.

Manufacturing Processes of Electrical Silver Contact Assemblies.jpg

Silver Plating Electrical Contacts are those crucial electrical circuit components for controlling the flow of electricity. Typically found in circuit breakers, switches and relays, contacts are made of electrically conductive metal. When two Electrical Contacts touch, the circuit closes. Conversely, when the contacts are separated by an insulating gap, it interrupts — or opens — the circuit.In many applications, the Contacts Silver Plated are composed of metals such as nickel, cadmium, copper or various alloys. Plating the contacts with a thin layer of gold can provide an important finishing touch that provides a variety of valuable benefits.

The effective operation of the electronic system largely depends on the reliability of the Ag Plated Contacts. The use of surface plating on the Electrical Silver Contact of the separable electrical connector can improve its electrical conductivity, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The most used signal connector a wide range of coating systems are copper alloy on the base, nickel plated on the middle layer, and gold plated on the surface. However, due to the rising price of gold in recent years, under the pressure of cost, silver has been re-applied as an alternative to gold. The cost of Silver Coated Contacts are less than 40% of gold. One part, while having good electrical conductivity, but Silver Plated Copper Contacts also has the characteristics of easy wear and easy vulcanization.
