These methods allow gold to be deposited selectively exactly where it is required, without immersing the entire component in a plating bath.Typical applications include:Gold plating repairsSelective gold platingJewelry and watchesElectrical contact areasMetal fittings and componentsIndividual partsRestoration workDecorative surface finishingPrototyping and small-batch productionCorrect Surface Preparation Is EssentialA high-quality gold coating always starts with proper surface preparation.The substrate must be thoroughly cleaned, degreased and properly activated before plating. Depending on the base material, an appropriate intermediate layer may also be required.Different substrates such as copper, brass, silver, stainless steel, steel, zinc alloys and aluminum require different preparation and activation procedures.For demanding applications, we recommend selecting the complete plating sequence according to the specific substrate and intended use.High-Quality 24K Gold DepositsWith an 8 g/L gold concentration, 24K gold and a hardness of approximately 220–230 HV, this electrolyte is suitable for producing attractive and relatively wear-resistant gold coatings.Depending on the application, thin decorative coatings or thicker functional gold layers can be deposited. For components exposed to mechanical wear, sufficient coating thickness is essential.Professional Gold Plating for Industry, Workshops and Individual ApplicationsWhether you are looking for a solution for complete tank plating or precise repair and selective plating with a pen or tampon, this 8 g/L Gold Electrolyte provides a versatile solution for professional gold plating applications.Betzmann Galvanik provides technical advice on electrolyte selection, surface preparation and the appropriate electroplating process for your application.Order Gold Electrolyte 8 g/LProfessional 24K Gold Electrolyte for tank plating, pen plating and tampon plating – ideal for gold plating, repair work, restoration and high-quality surface finishing.If you are unsure which preparation or intermediate layer is required for your particular substrate, please contact us for technical advice.

High-Performance Gold Flash Electrolyte for Professional Results The Gold Flash Gold Electrolyte is a premium electroplating solution designed for selective brush plating, swab plating, and bath electroplating processes. It enables fast, uniform, and highly adhesive gold layers on a wide range of metal surfaces. Perfect for jewelry finishing, repairs, technical applications, and decorative coatings, this electrolyte delivers consistent and reliable results from beginner to professional use. Operating Conditions and Deposit Data (Gold Plating Solution) Voltage Range: 4.0 – 6.0 volts Temperature: 14 – 25 °C Gold Concentration: 2 g/l Electrode Material: Platinum or Carbon (see notes) Gold Content in Deposit: 99.9% (balance: carbon) Plating Rate (at 5.0 V, platinum electrode): approx. 0.12 micron per minute (spot plating) Hardness: 180 – 190 HV Deposit Density: 19.3 g/cm³ Internal Stress: low to medium Storage and Shelf Life Storage Conditions: Protect from direct sunlight Shelf Life: Over 3 years Application Notes The use of stainless steel anodes is strongly discouraged for most plating processes. Plating rates are based on a reference area continuously covered by the swab during operation. Application Instructions (Beginner to Professional) 1. Surface Preparation (Critical Step) Thoroughly clean the surface (remove grease, oil, dirt) Activate the surface (acid dip / activator) Rinse with deionized water  Proper preparation ensures maximum adhesion and durability. 2. Brush Plating (Selective Gold Plating) Parameters: Voltage: 4 – 8 V Movement: steady, circular continuous electrical contact Process: Apply electrolyte to plating brush Connect workpiece as cathode (negative pole) Move brush (anode) evenly across surface Maintain constant movement Stop once desired thickness is reached  Ideal for precision work, repairs, and small areas 3. Swab Plating (Controlled Application) Parameters: Voltage: 5 – 10 V Pressure: light to moderate Movement: uniform, overlapping Process: Soak swab with electrolyte Apply evenly across surface Use overlapping strokes Repeat for thicker layers Ideal for medium surfaces and controlled coatings 4. Bath Electroplating (Full Immersion Process) Parameters: Voltage: 2 – 6 V Current density: 0.1 – 1 A/dm² Time: 30 seconds to several minutes Process: Fill plating bath with electrolyte Connect workpiece as cathode Position anode correctly Immerse workpiece Monitor current and time Rinse and dry after plating Ideal for uniform coatings and professional applications Important Process Guidelines Always work on a clean, grease-free surface Avoid interruptions during plating Maintain stable temperature and voltage Prevent contamination of the electrolyte Use proper rinsing between steps Professional Tips Pre-plating (nickel or palladium) improves adhesion Apply multiple thin layers instead of one thick layer Monitor bath composition regularly Increase voltage gradually for optimal deposition Applications Jewelry plating and restoration Decorative gold coating Electrical contacts and precision parts Workshop and industrial use Why This Electrolyte? This gold electrolyte offers maximum control, excellent adhesion, and brilliant gold finish across all plating methods—making it a reliable choice for both beginners and professionals.

Graphite Electrode Ø 6 mm – Universal Electrode for Professional ElectroplatingChemically Inert Graphite Electrode for Tank, Pen and Brush PlatingThe Graphite Electrode Ø 6 mm is manufactured from high-quality, high-density fine-grain graphite and is ideal for a wide range of electroplating applications. It is used wherever a metal-free, chemically inert electrical conductor is required and contamination of the electrolyte by metal ions must be avoided.Thanks to its excellent chemical resistance, graphite dissolves only very slowly in the electrolyte. This keeps the electrolyte composition stable and ensures high-quality, uniform plating results.The graphite electrode is perfectly suited for tank plating, pen plating and brush (tampon) plating and is compatible with a wide variety of electroplating solutions.Your AdvantagesManufactured from high-quality fine-grain graphiteChemically inertVery low wearNo contamination of the electrolyte with metal ionsExcellent chemical resistanceUniform current distributionSuitable for a wide range of electroplating processesLong service lifeFits standard 6 mm electrode holdersProfessional quality from Betzmann GalvanikWhy Use a Graphite Electrode?Many electroplating processes require that no additional metal ions enter the electrolyte, as these can negatively affect coating quality.Graphite offers several important advantages:Chemically almost inertVery low solubilityExcellent temperature resistanceGood electrical conductivityNo contamination of the electrolyteThese properties make graphite the preferred choice for many decorative and technical plating applications.Typical ApplicationsIdeal for:Gold platingSilver platingChromium platingPalladium platingPlatinum platingWhite bronze platingBlack nickel platingTank platingPen platingBrush (tampon) platingActivating solutionsCleaning solutionsWorkshopsLaboratoriesIndustrial applicationsRestorationModel makingMaterial PropertiesThe electrode is manufactured from high-density fine-grain graphite and offers:Excellent chemical resistanceGood electrical conductivityLow wearSlow consumption in the electrolyteLong service lifeApplication InstructionsBefore use:Keep the electrode clean and free from greaseUse a suitable electrolyteFollow the recommended voltage and current settingsDuring operation, the graphite electrode wears only slowly.
