The Effectiveness of Silver Plating

silver plating Of all metals, silver has the highest thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and optical reflectivity in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is also outstandingly temperature resistant, with a melting point of 962° C (1763° F).

Additionally, silver is a soft, ductile metal with good embeddability that performs well under high torque and loads. Silver’s unique combination of lubricity, high temperature resistance, and thermal conductivity makes it ideal for high-temperature fastening or bearing applications. It protects parts in low-oxygen environments and prevents the galling of nuts, fasteners, gears, and bearing surfaces at high temperatures.

Silver-plated parts can carry an extremely high current load in microwave applications while reducing loss at the highest microwave frequencies.

More About Our Silver Plating Process

Keystone Corporation offers engineered packaging solutions for silver plated components, including the use of specific vapor corrosion inhibiting (VCI) packaging materials.

Additionally, supplemental anti-tarnish treatments are available for silver-plated parts, which can slow tarnishing by sealing the surface from exposure to air and water. This type of packaging eliminates the chance of silver tarnishing over extended storage periods.

Applications for Silver Plating

Because of its temperature resistance and many other traits, silver plating is used in a wide variety of applications across numerous industries. Some traditional uses of Keystone’s Silver plating include:

Military
Aerospace
Communications
Electronics
