ARY Titanium produces platinum coated titanium electrodes as plates, meshes, rods, tubes and welded assemblies. As a titanium electrode manufacturer, we start from your electrolyte, current load and equipment drawing, so the coated area, connection and geometry fit your cell before the first sample ships.
Send us your drawing and operating window — an engineer replies with a coating and geometry proposal.
A platinized titanium anode splits the job in two: titanium carries the shape and the current, a thin platinum surface carries the reaction. Understanding that balance helps you specify only what your process needs, instead of paying for platinum where it does no work.
Structure Side
Grade 1 or Grade 2 titanium gives the electrode its form, stiffness and current path. Because titanium passivates where it is not coated, exposed frames and supports stay stable in many electrolytes.
Tabs, stems and clamp areas are usually left uncoated. Defining them on the drawing keeps contact resistance predictable and avoids wasting platinum on areas that never see electrolyte.
The bath chemistry, intended reaction, temperature and current density decide whether platinum is the right surface. We review these first, so the recommendation is based on your conditions, not a generic ranking.
Reaction Side
The platinum layer is where the electrochemical reaction takes place. Applied only to the active zone, it delivers the surface you need while keeping precious-metal content tied to the real working area.
We explain construction and selection logic only. Whether platinum, MMO or another surface suits your line is confirmed after reviewing your operating data.
Not sure platinum is the right surface for your bath? Share your conditions and get an honest recommendation.
Ask an Electrode EngineerEvery platinized titanium electrode we build is documented layer by layer. Knowing exactly which zone is coated, which is bare titanium and where current enters lets your team inspect parts on arrival and reorder the same electrolysis electrode years later.

2Prepared Titanium Substrate
3Edge Transition
4Uncoated Connection Zone
Anode surface for electroplating, electrowinning, special electrolysis and lab cells, sized to your current path.
Commercially pure titanium plate, mesh, rod or tube, cut and formed before coating so the geometry is final.
Degreasing, blasting and etching create a clean, keyed surface that supports platinum adhesion.
Applied to the active zone only, so precious metal follows the working area instead of the whole part.
Coated and masked areas are marked on the drawing, giving a clear acceptance reference for incoming inspection.
Welded tabs, studs or threaded stems kept bare for reliable clamping and stable contact resistance.
Confirmed according to your project requirement and recorded on the approved drawing — we do not quote a generic fixed value, because the right figure depends on your electrolyte, current density and service expectation.
Want a cross-section record like this for your own part? Send the drawing and we will mark every zone for review.
Submit Your DrawingA platinum surface performs well only inside the right operating window. Our engineers review six conditions around your sample before quoting, so you avoid ordering electrodes that look right on paper but fail in your bath.
Acids, salts, chloride or fluoride content and concentration tell us whether platinum on titanium is a stable choice.
Knowing whether the part works as anode, cathode or with polarity reversal changes the coating and connection design.
Operating pH and bath temperature define the service window, helping us set realistic expectations for lifetime.
Continuous, intermittent or pulse operation affects coating wear, so we size the active area to your real load.
Organic additives, metal ions and contaminants can shorten electrode life; flagging them early protects your investment.
Your cleaning method and frequency guide our handling advice, so routine maintenance does not damage the platinum surface.
Send these six data points and receive a written compatibility review within your quotation.

Tell us your cell size and mounting method, and we will suggest the form that fits with the least modification.
Match a Geometry to My CellPlatinized titanium anodes are used across very different processes. Each one changes the electrolyte, reaction, electrical load, geometry and validation plan, so we design for your specific line rather than promise one part fits every use.
Insoluble platinized anodes keep anode-to-part distance stable, helping deposits stay consistent between maintenance stops.

Tab, stud or busbar design and weld locations defined, reducing contact heating and installation time.
Sample plan, order quantity, delivery terms and NDA status kept together for a predictable purchase cycle.
No template needed — send whatever data you have, and we will build the specification page with you.
Start My Project SpecificationDiscoloration, deposits or rising voltage can come from operating conditions, cleaning or connections, not only the coating. We help you check the right data first, so you fix the real cause and avoid replacing electrodes that still have service life left.
Check: bath chemistry changes, temperature log and recent cleaning agents.
Check: water hardness, impurity ions and the cleaning interval in use.
Check: installation tools, rack contact and handling during maintenance.
Magnified Surface View
Check: current concentration at edges, short-circuit events and spacing.
Check: clamp torque, contact surface condition and busbar alignment.
Check: voltage trend versus load, electrolyte conductivity and batch history.
We never judge a failure cause from a photo alone — conclusions are drawn only after operating data and, where needed, part inspection.
Share your photos and operating records, and our engineers will tell you what to check first.

It is a titanium electrode with a thin platinum surface on its active area. Titanium provides shape, strength and current path, while platinum provides the reaction surface — giving a platinum working face at a fraction of the metal content of solid platinum.
Send the bath composition, pH, temperature, current density and intended reaction. Our engineers review compatibility and tell you plainly whether a platinized titanium anode, MMO or another surface is a better starting point.
It is confirmed per project based on your electrolyte, current density and service expectations, then written on the approved drawing. We do not quote a generic fixed value, because a figure that ignores your conditions would not protect your budget.
Possibly, depending on reversal frequency, electrolyte and current. Tell us how your system switches polarity, and we will assess it during the compatibility review before recommending a design.
Yes. Coated and masked areas are defined on the drawing. Leaving tabs, frames and clamp zones as bare titanium reduces cost and keeps connection areas clean for reliable contact.
We recommend welded titanium tabs, studs or conductor bars sized for your current, with an uncoated contact face. Share your busbar arrangement and we will propose a connection that limits heating at the joint.
Plates, meshes, expanded meshes, rods, tubes and welded assemblies, cut and formed to your drawing. Size limits depend on form and coating equipment, so send the dimensions and we will confirm feasibility.
Avoid abrasive tools and impact on the coated surface, and use cleaning agents agreed for your bath. We provide handling advice with each project so routine maintenance does not shorten electrode life.
Common contributors include operating outside the agreed window, contaminants in the bath, current concentration at edges, poor clamp contact and mechanical damage during handling. Reviewing operating data usually narrows the cause quickly.
We support sample and small-batch orders for validation. Lead time depends on form, size and coating requirement, and is confirmed in the quotation once your drawing has been reviewed.
