Metallurgically bonded precious metal clad wire and rod for electrical and electronic applications that is ductile, conductive, and corrosion-resistant are available from Anomet Products, Inc. of Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, USA (Plate 1).

Anomet precious metal clad wire features 10 - 24k gold, silver, platinum, palladium, and other alloys over copper-, nickel-based, and other core alloys. Providing the ductility required for bending, forming, and stamping, these metallurgically bonded materials incorporate two or more metals with a precious metal layer of 1 micron or better and are highly corrosion-resistant.
