When Baron Cronstedt originally extracted nickel in 1751, he intended to produce copper. That’s why he called this newly discovered metal kupfernickel, a German word that roughly translates in English to “devil’s copper.” Even though nickel’s a very useful and popular metal, the name might almost appear ironic to some people in modern times. Though…

Electroplated cadmium is a robust and versatile metallic coating. Cadmium is a soft white metal that, when plated onto steel, cast iron, malleable iron, copper, and powdered metal, functions as a “sacrificial coating,” corroding before the substrate material. The 5-20 Mesh size offers increased surface area for plating.
Forms: - 5-20 Mesh
Belmont Product Code 3008 Nominal Composition: - 99.95% Cd

Zinc metal coatings provide better protection on Iron and Steel than any other corrosion resistant coatings. Plated SHG Zinc coatings are pure compared to hot dipped and are also thinner and more ductile, which allows them to be made brighter and more lustrous. We offer this material in 2″ diameter balls that are solid and clean and do not have any flash orgates which would cause backet hang ups.
Forms: - 2" Diameter Balls
Belmont Product Code 8000AG Nominal Composition: - 99.99% Zn

Understanding the Various Metals Used for Plating
Are you considering plating metals? The process of metal plating is performed to improve corrosion resistance, add aesthetic appeal, enhance the metal’s hardness, reduce friction in moving pieces, increase or decrease conductivity and to improve solderability. The most common plating metals include brass, bronze, cadmium, nickel and tin, and here at Belmont Metals, we sell…
A Brief Guide to Understanding the Electroplating Process
Electroplating refers to a process used to bind a layer of one metal over the surface of another one. Electroplating changes the properties of an item’s surface, providing protection, improving its appearance, or very often, both. Besides creating a protective coating for a metal item, manufacturers also might use electroplating to increase its thickness or…
