TIN PLATING

Tin plating is mainly used in the electronics and electromechanical sectors due to its excellent electrical conductivity and weldability. Moreover, it is used as anti-nitriding protection on ferrous metals and has anti-seize functions on copper and aluminium. It is also widely used in the food sector thanks to its anodic behaviour compared to iron in these applications.

Surface appearance may vary from opaque to shiny depending on the type of bath used, whilst colour is milky white.

It consists in an alkaline bath for opaque finishes and acid for shiny finishes. It can be used on products in iron, die-cast iron, copper and its alloys, zamak and aluminium and its alloys. Various thicknesses on request from 1 to 30 microns. Rack and barrel plating for small parts.

We are specialised in aluminium treatments and are certified in accordance with M.D. 06-04-04 for coating materials in contact with drinking water..
