Galvano Pen with 3 Pads – Precision Pen Plating Tool for Professional Electroplating

Professional Pen Plating Tool for Selective Electroplating Applications

The Galvano Pen with 3 Pads is the ideal tool for precise, selective and professional electroplating. Designed specifically for pen plating, brush plating and swab plating, it allows you to plate only the desired areas without immersing the entire workpiece in a plating bath.

Supplied with three interchangeable pads of different sizes, the Galvano Pen is suitable for both intricate details and larger surfaces, ensuring uniform metal deposition with maximum control. It is the perfect solution for repairs, restoration work, decorative finishing and functional electroplating.

The Galvano Pen is fully compatible with the premium electroplating solutions from Betzmann Galvanik, including gold, silver, copper, nickel, chromium, rhodium, palladium, platinum, cobalt, zinc and many other plating electrolytes.
