Plate-Tex Classic anode bags for electroplating – 15 µm PP filter bags (laser-welded)
Reliable electrolyte filtration for electroplating and printed circuit board manufacturing
The WINKLER Plate-Tex Classic anode bag is the proven standard for stable bath quality in electroplating. It reliably retains anode sludge and particles while simultaneously supporting a constant ion flow – for uniform layer thicknesses, less scrap, and reproducible surfaces.
Whether for mass production or demanding precision applications: Plate-Tex Classic is used millions of times in industrial applications and has been designed for high chemical and mechanical stresses in electrolyte baths.
Typical applications
The Plate-Tex Classic is suitable wherever anode abrasion needs to be controlled and retained – without slowing down the process:
- Electroplating lines (e.g. nickel plating, copper plating, zinc plating – depending on the electrolyte)
- Printed circuit board manufacturing / surface technology (high requirements for particle purity)
- Anode baskets, plate anodes and stick anodes
- Industrial and laboratory applications with sensitive electrolyte baths
The Plate-Tex Classic is the "all-rounder" in our anode bags and accessories category. It offers reliable protection against bath contamination in all metal and electronics manufacturing processes and is optimized for a wide range of standard applications.
Why an anode bag? Cleaner electrolyte = better surface area.
When the anode dissolves, fine sludge is inevitably produced. If this sludge enters the electrolyte, it can cause roughness, inclusions , and defects in the coating . Plate-Tex Classic forms a particle-resistant barrier with a 15 µm filter fineness – for stable processes and longer bath life.
Design & Manufacturing: Details that make the difference in service life
The Plate-Tex Classic is manufactured in Germany and is designed to ensure that filtration remains reliably effective over the long term – even with bath movement, temperature changes and chemical exposure:
- Laser-welded edges: 100% tight, no fraying, no seam holes – significantly lower particle risk.
- Washed & Thermofixed: Removes residues from fabric manufacturing and reduces contamination in the bath from the start.
- Chemically resistant PP staple fiber yarn: Robust polypropylene for many common galvanic electrolytes.
- Mechanically robust: High tear resistance for long service life in daily operation.
Your advantages in B2B use
Plate-Tex Classic is the economical standard solution when process reliability needs to be predictable – with clean filtration and stable coating quality:
- Consistent bath quality: Reliable retention of anode sludge and particles.
- Reproducible coating: Uniform surfaces and fewer disruptions in the process.
- Long service life: 320 g/m² basis weight for robust, durable filter bags.
- Efficient ion flow: Optimal air and ion permeability – no unnecessary process bottleneck.
- Custom manufacturing possible: Perfectly fitting for anode baskets, plate or stick anodes.
- Made in Germany: Manufacturing quality for industrial requirements.
Which version is right? Quick comparison of Plate-Tex anode bags
The choice depends primarily on particle load, desired bath cleanliness, and mechanical stress:
