It offers a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative while achieving a finish that closely resembles the classic yellow chromate coating.The resulting coating produces the characteristic golden-yellow, slightly iridescent appearance traditionally found on vintage automotive hardware, fasteners, and mechanical components, making it especially popular for classic car restoration, motorcycle restoration, engineering, and decorative metal finishing.ApplicationsThe Yellow Passivation is ideal for:Zinc-plated componentsZinc surfacesScrewsNutsWashersFastenersBracketsAutomotive partsClassic car restorationMotorcycle restorationMechanical componentsIndustrial partsModel engineeringDecorative metal finishingSuitable for:Restoration specialistsClassic car workshopsElectroplating companiesMetal fabrication workshopsIndustrial usersProfessional workshopsHobby usersProduct BenefitsAttractive golden yellow to brass-colored finishCharacteristic iridescent appearanceChromium(III)-based technologyCompletely free of Chromium(VI)Improved corrosion protectionSimple immersion processNo power supply requiredNo electrodes requiredReady-to-use solutionUniform conversion coatingDecorative and protective finishIdeal as a final treatment after zinc platingHow It WorksThe Yellow Passivation is applied directly after zinc plating.Simply immerse the clean zinc-plated workpiece into the ready-to-use passivation solution.Within only a few minutes, a decorative Chromium(III) conversion coating forms on the surface.Depending on the immersion time, different color shades can be achieved:Light yellowGolden yellowBrass-coloredSlightly iridescent finishThe color intensity can easily be adjusted by shortening or extending the immersion time.Application NotesDuring the conversion coating process, a small amount of zinc is chemically converted. Therefore, the zinc coating should have a minimum thickness of 2 µm before passivation.Once the desired color has been achieved, remove the workpiece from the solution and rinse thoroughly with distilled water.Allow the coating to dry completely to achieve maximum corrosion resistance and optimum color development.Suitable Base MaterialsThe Yellow Passivation is designed exclusively for:Zinc-plated steelZinc surfacesElectroplated zinc coatingsPreviously blue-passivated zinc componentsFreshly zinc-plated workpiecesPreviously blue-passivated zinc parts can also be converted into an attractive golden-yellow finish.Typical ApplicationsFrequently used for:Classic car restorationVintage motorcycle restorationAutomotive restorationScrews and fastenersMechanical engineeringIndustrial componentsDecorative hardwareModel engineeringReplacement partsMetal finishingAvailable VersionsReady-to-use Yellow Chromate Conversion Coating / Yellow PassivationAvailable in various container sizesQuality from Betzmann GalvanikBetzmann Galvanik supplies professional surface finishing solutions for decorative and industrial electroplating applications.

Flat Anode Aluminium 100 × 50 × 2 mm (SW10023) Short Description The Flat Aluminium Anode 100 × 50 × 2 mm is a large‑area sacrificial anode made from high‑quality unalloyed aluminium, designed for electroplating and electrochemical applications. It delivers consistent aluminium ion release and supports stable bath conditions for uniform deposits, especially in chrome, nickel and base metal plating baths. Product Description This flat anode is constructed from pure aluminium, offering a controlled and homogeneous dissolution in the electrolyte. Its broad, flat surface (100 × 50 × 2 mm) makes it particularly effective as a sacrificial or counter electrode in electroplating tanks where uniform current distribution and stable metal ion supply are essential. Compared to smaller electrodes, the large contact area promotes more even coating, reduced voltage polarization and improved process control — especially beneficial with larger workpieces or higher current densities. Typical Applications Galvanic zincing and other aluminium‑supported processes Chrome and nickel plating using aluminium sacrificial anodes Bath electroplating where broad anodes enhance current uniformity Electrolytic cleaning and surface preparation Electrolysis tasks in labs and workshops Key Benefits Large active surface: supports even current distribution and coating deposition High‑purity aluminium: ensures controlled ion supply to the bath Versatile: compatible with a wide range of electroplating electrolytes Easy to position: flat geometry for stable placement in plating tanks Stable processes: helps reduce voltage polarization and improve bath efficiency Usage Instructions Placement: Position the anode in the electrolyte to provide even coverage relative to the cathode (workpiece). Connection: Attach the anode to the positive terminal of the power supply. Plating: Operate within the voltage and temperature ranges recommended for the electrolyte in use. Maintenance: Periodically remove oxide or deposited residues to maintain conductivity. Conclusion The Flat Aluminium Anode 100 × 50 × 2 mm is a reliable, versatile sacrificial anode designed for consistent performance in electroplating applications. Its large active surface area and material stability make it suitable for workshop, lab and production use.
