ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides low-current carrying rem-reed switch contacts, preferably for operation under vacuum or under a protective gas. The contacts comprise a medium-hard magnetic material substrate which may contain anomalies on the surface. These are covered by an intermediate layer from 1 to 20 .mu.m of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium and tantalum. This intermediate layer is then covered with a noble metal layer, for example alloys of gold or silver, and preferably by ruthenium.
