A process for the continuous, electrolytic plating of a long span of metal with a layer of metal, having a high line speed and low period of immersion in the electrolyte, and a device therefor. The span of metal is passed through a shaving drawplate, then through a metal plating solution to which an electric voltage is applied through a fluid electric connector comprising a solution of metal chloride, a fluoride and boric acid. The process is used to plate a metal with an adhesive metal layer, which provides both ductility to facilitate extrusion and low, non-evolving contact resistance. |
