Plating processes are used to improve or modify the surface properties. These can be functional (corrosion resistant, wear, hardness, weldability...) or decorative (colour, brightness…).

Coating metals used in glass-to-metal seal (GTMS) are mainly functional coatings, but aspect is also important.

Some important features must consider during plating components of GTMS.
