Class Code Information

Phraseology

Electroplating
Note:  

Shall not be assigned to an employer engaged in operations described by another classification unless the operations subject to Code 3372 are conducted as a separate and distinct business.   Includes incidental manufacturing of tin or tin compounds.   

Description

Code 3372 applies to employers engaged in processing placing a metallic coat on metals using electrolysis.  Nickel, copper, tin, gold, and chromium are used to coat the metals.  The metal to be plated is dipped into a tank which contains the proper mixture solution.  Then an electrical charge is passed through this solution, thus creating a coating on the metal.

This classification also contemplates chemical milling where metal articles are immersed in tanks containing a caustic alkali solution without the use of an electrical charge.  This places a protective coating on the metal.  

This classification also applies to employers engaged in recovering or reclaiming tin from tin plate scrap.  The types of detinning methods are by chemical process, chlorinating, electrolysis, galvanizing or tinning – not by electrolytic process and electrolysis.
