Abstract:
It is aimed to provide a plated member and a plated terminal for connector, to which a large current can be applied and which have both a low friction coefficient and high heat resistance, at low cost and provide a method for producing such a plated member and a method for producing such a plated terminal for connector. A silver-tin alloy layer for coating a surface of a base material made of copper or copper alloy and a silver coating layer for coating the silver-tin alloy layer and to be exposed on an outermost surface are simultaneously formed by heating to obtain a plated member after tin and silver plating layers are alternately laminated on the surface of the base material with the outermost surface formed by the silver plating layer.
