Contact Finish and Mating-Cycle Budget
For a header that sees occasional reconnections — say quarterly service cycles — that gold thickness supports hundreds of mates without exposing the base metal to oxidation. The GXT™ option is a palladium-nickel alloy that runs harder than gold alone, which can extend cycle life further in a high-vibration or frequent-mate application.
