Galvano Pen

Product information "Galvano Pen"

Galvano Pen with 3 Pads (BMG-028)

Short Description

The Galvano Pen with 3 Pads is a versatile, handheld electroplating tool for targeted plating, repairs, and local finishing. With three interchangeable pads, it is ideal for pen, brush or pad electroplating, enabling precise and uniform metallic coatings on hard-to-reach or detailed areas without using a full plating tank.


Product Description

The Galvano Pen is an ergonomic device designed for controlled, localized electroplating. Instead of immersing objects in large plating baths, this tool enables direct electrochemical deposition where you need it — saving time, materials and setup effort.

The set includes 3 pads of different sizes for maximum flexibility:

  • Small pad: for fine details and spot repairs

  • Medium pad: versatile for most general areas

  • Large pad: for broader surface coverage in one pass


Typical Applications

  • Local electroplating (gold, silver, copper, nickel, etc.)

  • Repair of plated surfaces (scratches, worn areas)

  • Detail and accent plating on jewelry or metal parts

  • Prototyping and small batch plating without a bath system

  • Workshops, labs, hobbyists and repair applications


Key Benefits

  • Precise application: targeted plating without a full bath

  • Flexible: three pads for different surface sizes

  • Compact & handheld: ideal for small workpieces and tight spots

  • Quick setup: no extensive equipment required

  • Cost effective: reduces chemical usage and setup time


Usage Instructions

  1. Preparation: Clean and degrease the workpiece; activate surface if needed.

  2. Pad selection: Choose the appropriate pad size.

  3. Electrolyte application: Apply electrolyte directly to the pad or use suitable sponges/brushes.

  4. Plating: Connect plating power supply, set current, and work evenly over the surface.

  5. Post-treatment: Rinse with clean water and dry; polishing enhances finish.


Conclusion

The Galvano Pen with 3 Pads is a practical, flexible tool for anyone who wants precise, high-quality electroplating results without the complexity of full bath systems — ideal for workshops, labs, hobbyists and repair professionals.
