Tin plating involves the use of current in electrolytes enriched with tin salts to deposit tin onto conductive workpiece surfaces. Aalberts process technologies offers tin plating services for non-ferrous metals, ferrous materials, stainless steel and die-cast zinc parts.
The advantages of tin coatings:
- Good solderability
- High ductility
- Good electrotechnical properties
- Excellent corrosion protection, also on copper and steel
- Resistant to organic acids (in the absence of oxygen)
- Self-lubricating
