Is there is coating (Dipped/Chrome/Zinc/etc...) that can prevent arcing from dissimilar materials when making contact to complete a circuit? Think of an electrical tact switch type design except mechanical to the extent of no soldering.
You may not find a material for coating the contacts, but there are other ways to reduce arc over that can be as simple as a resistor and capacitor. It depends a lot one what you are using it for though.
