Abstract
A novel contact roll assembly particularly suited for use in electro-chemical plating of metallic strip. A contact roll is rotatably mounted on a stationary support which is attached to a bus bar. Regions of contact between the stationary support and the contact roll are preferably by metallic inserts carried by the support. The inserts not only provide support for the contact roll but also provide bearing surfaces for journalling the roll and provide large surface contact areas for flow of plating current.
