1.Structure of Prime Quality Tinplate and Tin Free Steel for Cans Description
Also known as chromed steel, tin-free steel (TFS) is obtained by coating the metal base (low-carbon steel) with an ultra-thin layer of metallic chrome and then with a chromium oxide layer.
The product complies with ASTM A-657 Specification and is manufactured with low current density (TFS-III) and is supplied only in coils of up to 12 metric tons.
2.Main Features of the Prime Quality Tinplate and Tin Free Steel for Cans
Formability and strength – Tinplates have got very good formability and strength. By selecting a proper temper grade, appropriate formability is obtained for different applications as well as the required strength after forming.
Corrosion resistance – Tinplate has got good corrosion resistance. By selecting a proper coating weight, appropriate corrosion resistance is obtained against container contents. Coated items should meet 24 hour 5 % salt spray requirement.
Solderability and weldability – Tinplates can be joined both by soldering or welding. These properties of tinplate are used for making various types of cans.
Hygienic – Tin coating provides good and non toxic barrier properties to protect food products from impurities, bacteria, moisture, light and odours.
Safe – Tinplate being low weight and high strength makes food cans easy to ship and transport.
Eco friendly – Tinplate offers 100 % recyclability.
Tin is not good for low temperature applications since it changes structure and loses adhesion when exposed to temperatures below – 40 deg C.

5.FAQ of Prime Quality Tinplate and Tin Free Steel for Cans
- What is tinning and how does it work?
Tinning is the process of thinly coating sheets of wrought iron or steel with tin, and the resulting product is known as tinplate. It is most often used to prevent rust.
- Do you only have prime quality tinplate?
We can supply both prime and second quality tinplate.
- Q: What are the different types of tin coatings used on tinplate?
- There are primarily three types of tin coatings used on tinplate: electrolytic tinplate (ETP), tin-free steel (TFS), and black plate. ETP is the most common and consists of a thin layer of pure tin electroplated onto the steel substrate, providing excellent corrosion resistance and food compatibility. TFS, on the other hand, is a steel substrate coated with a layer of chromium oxide or chromium oxide and polymer, offering comparable properties to ETP but without the use of tin. Lastly, black plate refers to uncoated steel that can be further processed or coated as per specific requirements.
- Q: How does tinplate compare to other packaging materials in terms of weight?
- Tinplate is relatively lightweight compared to other packaging materials.
- Q: What are the main factors influencing the demand for tinplate?
- The main factors influencing the demand for tinplate include the growth of the packaging industry, technological advancements in tinplate manufacturing, consumer preferences for sustainable and recyclable packaging materials, government regulations on food safety and product packaging, and the economic growth and urbanization in emerging markets.
- Q: How is tinplate used in the construction industry?
- Tinplate is commonly used in the construction industry for various applications. It is often utilized for roofing materials, such as tinplate shingles or metal roof panels, due to its durability, weather resistance, and corrosion protection. Additionally, tinplate is used for cladding or siding purposes, providing an aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting exterior finish for buildings. Its versatility also extends to ductwork, where tinplate is used to fabricate air conditioning and ventilation systems. Overall, tinplate's strength, flexibility, and protective properties make it a valuable material in the construction sector.
- Q: Can tinplate packaging be used for pet food products?
- Yes, tinplate packaging can be used for pet food products. Tinplate is a commonly used material for packaging due to its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ability to maintain the freshness and quality of food products. It provides a secure and protective barrier against external elements, making it suitable for pet food products as well.
- Q: Can tinplate be used for packaging personal care products?
- Yes, tinplate can be used for packaging personal care products. Tinplate is a type of steel coated with a thin layer of tin, making it highly resistant to corrosion and providing a protective barrier. It is commonly used in the packaging industry, including for personal care products such as cosmetics, lotions, and creams, due to its durability, versatility, and ability to maintain product integrity.
- Q: Can tinplate be used for packaging of frozen foods?
- Yes, tinplate can be used for packaging of frozen foods. Tinplate is known for its excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand extreme temperatures. These qualities make it suitable for packaging frozen foods as it helps to maintain the integrity and freshness of the food during storage and transportation.
- Q: How long does tinplate packaging last?
- Tinplate packaging can last for a very long time, often decades, as tin is a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material.
- Q: What are the main factors influencing the pricing of tinplate?
- The main factors influencing the pricing of tinplate include the cost of raw materials, such as tin and steel, which can fluctuate due to supply and demand dynamics. Other factors include production and manufacturing costs, including energy and labor expenses, as well as market competition and global economic conditions. Additionally, trade policies, tariffs, and regulations can also impact tinplate pricing.
- Q: How is tinplate printed and decorated?
- Tinplate is typically printed and decorated through a process called offset printing. In this method, the design is first engraved onto a metal plate, which is then coated with ink. The inked plate transfers the design onto a rubber blanket, which in turn applies the design onto the tinplate. This process allows for high-quality and precise printing on the tinplate surface. Additionally, after printing, various decorative techniques such as embossing, lacquering, or applying special coatings can be used to enhance the appearance and protect the design on the tinplate.
