Tin galvanic coatings

Tinning, also called bleaching, is widely used in the food industry, electrical engineering, electronics and energy sector. Our coatings made of pure tin (99.99% Sn), are characterized by perfect solderability.

Tinning is used mainly for covering of:

• soldering tips,
• contacts and contact rails used in electrical engineering,
• household items,
• machinery in the food industry.

Positive characteristics of the use of zinc coatings:

• perfect solderability (e.g. when covering cooper wires),
• very good contacting and conductivity,
• securing contact surfaces against oxidation,
• protection against the effects of sulfur in the gumming process,
• partial nitriding of steel,
• harmless impact on the human body (e.g. when covering items that come into contact with food),
• high plasticity and low melting temperature,
• providing increased slippage.
