Electrical & Mechanical Properties of Gold Plated Tungsten Wire
Gold plated tungsten wire offers low electrical resistance, high tensile strength, and excellent fatigue resistance. The gold layer provides superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, while tungsten ensures dimensional stability even under thermal cycling.
These properties make it suitable for high-reliability electronic and aerospace applications.

Key Features
- Shiny golden surface condition - brighter than black or white tungsten wire
- Exceptional high temperature resistance and high melting point
- Low coefficient of thermal expansion
- Superior corrosion resistance compared to ordinary tungsten wire
Applications
Gold-plated tungsten wire serves as an electrode in photocopiers, replacing corrosion-resistant tungsten wire and tungsten aluminum wire. It also functions as an ideal corrosion-resistant electron emission material with applications in high-energy physics, meteorology, and other scientific research fields.
