DAC3865

DAC3825

A Lambs-wool/Nylon backed material of both high quality and absorbency. Nylon Fur Fabric is the most commonly used ‘Dalic’ membrane both for preparatory and plating
electrodes. The material has good wearing characteristics and is therefore suitable for jobs of longer duration. The one disadvantage is the occasional breakaway of the lambswool fibre, however, this problem is easily cured by using a simple filtering system when re-circulating the plating

Redsb300

red "Scotchbrite" is used when depositing the harder metals such as Nickel and Nickel Cobalt. Both materials will be found effective in improving adhesion to hardened and stainless steels. Care should be taken when using Scotchbrite to ensure that back-plating does not take place, this is caused by minute metal particles becoming trapped in the membrane and forming a mini short circuit,as the particles attract current and thus grow in size. This occurrence is signified by erratic movement of the ammeter and a much higheramperage for a given voltage.

Whitesb30

Scotchbrite membranes are used when heavy electrodeposits are required to assist levelling by scoring the plated surface thereby reducing machining or grinding time when reworking. This membrane absorbency value is virtually nil and consequent it should always be used in conjunction with a pumped solution supply.

PUMP

1/1000

The Peristaltic Pump is considered a vital part of any ‘Dalic’, selective plating facility. The Unit is used to supply the plating area(normally via the anode) with a constant supply of electrolyte, thereby ensuring an even high quality deposit is produced in the minimum amount of time. By using the pump an electrolytes efficiency factor is far more likely to be achieved, also stressing of the deposit is kept to a minimum by ensuring that overheating does not occur. Pumping takes place by the simple operation of compressing a rubber or plastic tube under revolving rollers thereby creating a suction effect. The unit is self priming and none of its vital moving parts can be corroded by the electrolyte.

Lead plating offers a protective

coating especially in acid

cadmium, it does not corrode

preferentially to ferrous materials,

and will not protect the base
