WATTGATE AUDIO GRADE PLATING
- Gold Three Layer Plating Process
- 1. Oxygen free copper plating
- improves conductivity
- 2. Electroless nickel plating
- necessary to prevent the leeching of the copper through the pure gold layer
- 3. 24k gold plating
- improves conductivity
- Rhodium Four Layer Plating Process
- 1. Oxygen free copper plating
- improves conductivity
- 2. Electroless nickel plating
- necessary to prevent the leeching of the copper through the pure gold layer
- 3. 24k gold plating
- improves conductivity
- 4. Pure Rhodium plating
- Silver Three Layer Plating Process
- 1. Oxygen free copper plating
- improves conductivity
- 2. Electroless nickel plating
- necessary as a diffusion barrier between the copper and pure silver
- 3. Pure silver plating
- improves conductivity
