We’re running into life issues on load boards where the Johnstech socket
wears through a layer of 50 um hard electroplated gold. Does anyone have
experience with Rhodium electroplating as a long life replacement for gold? 

 

The gold is specified for a hardness of 160-200 Knoop and Rhodium is 900-1000
Knoop.
