Gold Plating Bath JE253 Au/In – 3 g/L Au

The Gold Plating Bath JE253 is a mildly acidic gold electrolyte that deposits light yellow, uniformly shiny gold coatings. It is suitable for both technical and decorative applications, as the deposited layers offer high resistance to corrosion and abrasion. Under optimal conditions, highly glossy and strongly adherent gold layers with a maximum thickness of 5 μm can be achieved.

Cobalt and nickel-free!
