Anodes for chrome plating
The main alloys for anodes used in the chrome plating industry are made of Tin and Lead.
The tin percentage can vary up to max 10%, while that of Pb can even reach 100%.
Other alloys used are:
- Pb / Sb,
- Pb / Ag,
- Sn / Sb / Pb,
- Sn / Sb / Pb / Ag,
The following types of hooks can be applied to our anodes:
- Regular copper hooks (tinned, welded and bolted or riveted)
- Drowned copper hooks (the anode head is smelted and the copper hook is inserted in it)
- Each hook can be supplied with plastic protection; the anodes with plasticized hook can be max. 2.5 m long.
- We can apply hooks or eyebolts for lifting.
- Cast anodes in all forms
Anodes for printed circuits
For the printed circuit sector we produce anodes in pure tin or Sn/Pb alloys with a tin percentage of from 60% to 90%. We can use highly pure tin with lead content < 50 ppm.
The anodes can be supplied with threaded copper hook (to customer design).
Spheres, rods and small cathodes
Through smelting, extrusion and subsequent molding we produce:
- Tin spheres with Ø 15, 25, 40 and 50 mm.;
- Tin small cathodes (various sizes);
- Tin rods of 50, 100 or 1000 gr.
Rolled anodes
On customer request we can produce tin anodes for rolling process.
