Understanding The MIL-G-45204 Specification
Since gold is one of โ if not the โ most commonly used metal finishes in many industries including for military and aerospace applications, the US Department of Defense outlines the requirements for gold plating on various metallic surfaces and these requirements are all under the MIL-G-45204 specification.
The specification defines the types of gold coatings, the thickness required, and methods of application to ensure that the gold plating provides necessary properties like corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and durability.
