We can offer you, according to your needs, our electroplated strips. This cost-efficient process enables multiple combinations on either flat or double-gauge strips :
- Tin plate finish: matt, brite, reflow, total or selective with or without a under-layer. A under-layer of copper or nickel, even a thin coat is the only real protection against Whisker effects.
- Nickel plating, silver plating, gold plating, total or selective.
- Nickel phosphorus plating (low sulphur) for electronic applications.

In 2011 and 2012, TG GRISET received the medal for the “Best Supplier” from the world’s largest “In-line Cutters” of power transistor lead frame, a most demanding market :
- It is imperative that the substrate material of electronic power chips diffuse heat, therefore it is necessary to use materials of high conductivity.
- The mechanical strain on connections necessitates the use of very hard materials.
- The assembly of the chips (die attach and bonding) on the substrate requires an exceptional surface and coating of NiP or Ag (total or selective).
- Packaging of the components requires the conservation, at high temperatures, of hard material hardness, as well as a high dimensional precision /accuracy.
- The mass production requires substantial lengths of roll (up to 1400mm outside diameter).
Electrotechnology is the art of passing an electrical current between two surfaces that are in contact with each other: interrupters, relays, sockets, switches, terminals, etc. are the most prominent everyday examples.
Each case is unique depending on the surface, the contact pressure and of course the passing/active currents.
The wide range of alloys offered by TG GRISET, from the more traditional (brasses) to more sophisticated metallurgy alloys (alloys with structural hardening), is a source of infinite variety of physical properties, mechanical, dimensional, … ensuring the best solution to customer needs.
Automotive, computer, household appliances, electronic devices are big consumers of connectors … As in electrotechnology, applications of this market require, on top of the above mentioned properties, specific metallurgical properties :
- To avoid the premature wear of the speed cutting tools, TG GRISET controls the abrasiveness of the products that are delivered.
- Because of the need to severely bend the products, TG GRISET produces very fine grains.
- To reduce the need to adjust the tool settings, set for the complexity and geometric precision of the parts to be produced, TG GRISET’s processes avoid the stress of strips used by its customers.
- Because the parts are generally produced in very large numbers, TG GRISET offers very long strips.
- To best streamline the manufacturing needs of our customers, TG GRISET suggests profile strips that are either completely or selectively coated.
