Silver plating for technical and decorative components

Silver plating

YTSAB offers silver plating using the Ag O-56 process. Explain whether the priority is electrical function, appearance or another specified property.

Define the function of the silver coating

Atotech describes Ag O-56 as a high-purity silver-plating process with adjustable deposit characteristics, including brightness and hardness. General supplier data are not an automatic test result or approval for each finished component.

Electrical contact requirements

If the coated surface forms an electrical contact, describe the mating surface and assembly. Provide the required test method and acceptance limits. A material name or appearance description cannot replace a functional specification.

Substrate, existing coatings and appearance

Send the full material grade and information about earlier coatings or preparation. Mark visible areas, masking and critical dimensions. Identify any appearance reference and agree how it will be assessed.

Information for the quotation

  • Drawing revision, substrate, batch quantity and delivery needs.
  • Coated areas, thickness requirements and measurement positions.
  • Applicable customer specification and edition.
  • Inspection scope, functional tests and reporting.
  • Packing and handling requirements.

For a new part, agree the scope of any trial and the person responsible for approval. Confirm the delivery destination with YTSAB before dispatch.

Continue to electroplating principles, thickness measurement and prototype and trial enquiries.

Process background: Atotech Ag O-56. The actual process and inspection requirements are agreed for the order.
