AUROBOND® TN Gold Strike

An AUROBOND TN gold strike applied under a KARATCLAD® or AUROLOY® gold deposit is the lowest cost assurance of perfect adhesion. An AUROBOND TN gold strike also minimizes drag-in of contaminates into the gold plating bath and minimizes the effect of pores in the base metal.
