Anode Bag Extra Fine 5 µm – Plate-Tex micro for Electroplating
Microfiltration for Maximum Bath Purity in Electroplating
The WINKLER Anode Bag Plate-Tex micro 5 µm was developed specifically for applications where maximum bath purity and reproducible plating results are essential. With extra-fine 5 µm microfiltration, even the smallest particles and anode sludge are reliably retained – without compromising the ion flow the electrolyte needs.
The anode bag is particularly well suited to precision electroplating, PCB manufacturing and demanding surface finishing, where even the smallest contamination can lead to scrap or quality issues.
Typical Applications
The Plate-Tex micro anode bag is used wherever the highest standards of electrolyte filtration apply:
- Precision electroplating with high surface finish requirements
- PCB manufacturing and the electronics industry
- Plating baths with very fine particles
- Coating processes with tight tolerances
- Anode baskets, plate anodes and billet anodes
This extra-fine filter bag is a key component in our range of anode & cathode bags. It was developed specifically for the demanding requirements of the metal and electronics industry, to effectively prevent particle inclusions in the coating.
Why 5 µm Microfiltration Can Be Critical
In many plating processes, standard anode bags aren't fine enough to reliably retain the smallest particles. If these reach the electrolyte, they can cause roughness, pitting or inclusions in the coating.
With a micron rating of 5 µm, the Plate-Tex micro delivers significantly higher filtration performance than standard anode bags, contributing directly to more stable processes, less scrap and more uniform coating thickness.
Material & Construction for Industrial Applications
The Plate-Tex micro is built on a high-strength polypropylene needle felt, developed specifically for demanding electrolyte filtration. The material combines high mechanical stability with very good permeability.
- Polypropylene needle felt: Chemically resistant to a wide range of plating electrolytes.
- 400 g/m² fabric weight: High mechanical stability and long service life.
- Thermally smoothed: Reduced fibre shedding and especially clean filtration.
- High air permeability: Stable electrolyte flow with no unnecessary process loss.
Your Benefits for B2B Use
The Plate-Tex micro was developed for industrial applications where stable processes and reproducible results are essential.
- Maximum bath purity: 5 µm microfiltration for the most demanding requirements.
- Less scrap: Clean electrolytes deliver consistent coating results.
- Stable processes: Consistent filtration without affecting current flow.
- Long service life: Robust filter material for permanent use.
- Custom sizing available: Made to fit anode baskets and anode shapes.
- Chemically resistant: Suited to a wide range of plating electrolytes.
