Is it suppose to be done on coupon or at qualification stage? Why you need to do every batch? If you do, why not have a witness coupon designed along your production part? -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Carroll, Thomas A Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2009 5:20 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Adhesion Testing of Brush Plating Fellow Techies, MIL-STD-865D, Selective, Brush Plating, Electro-Deposition calls for Adhesion Testing per paragraph 5.5.6e 1 (tape test) or 2 (shot peen). But I have a supplier telling me that they do not perform the adhesion test on production application because it would leave a residue. My question is this: Do any of you have experience with Selective Brush Plating and if yes, would you recommend allowing the adhesion test to be waived on production hardware?
