Tin Electroplating intended for engineering purposes is used for corrosion protection, to facilitate soldering, to improve antigalling characteristics, and as a stop of barrier in the nitriding of high-strength steels.  Color is gray-white, matte to bright in appearance depending on the process used.  Soft and very ductile, not good in low temperature applications.   Tin plating is ROHS compliant    Click here to download a brochure about Tin Plating.
