Super Tin (S-TIN)

Product Catalog

Super Tin, developed solely by TCC, is our latest product that applies high corrosion-resistant properties of tin and zinc alloy which is effective in preventing the formation of whiskers. Super Tin was developed to pioneer and expand into the market beyond our traditional tinplate such as electronic components and construction materials. At present, Super Tin is also used as materials for bottle cap, canning and electronic components that particularly require corrosion resistance in the cutting area.

*Prevention of whisker formation: Properties that prevent formation of hair like protrusion, which is responsible for short circuits in electronic equipment due to internal stress on the plating layer.

Application

Automotive fuel tanks / Electronic components / Ship and train parts / General cans / Bottle caps

Classification

① Classification by Type of Steel

Type of Steel Remark
MR (Medium Residual) It contains few residual minor constituents and it is widely used for applications such as containers.
L (Low Metalloid Steel) It contains particularly few residual minor constituents such as Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, so that it is suitable for the materials of containers required improved corrosion resistance.
D (Drawing) It is aluminum killed steel, so that it is suitable for the applications, which bear deep drawing, or other working that is liable to produce Luder’s lines pattern.

② Classification by Temper

The temper grade of SR(Single Reduced) BP(Black Plate) shall be expressed by the Rockwell superficial hardness values(HR30Tm).

The hardness of less than 0.21mm in nominal thickness is normally tested using Rockwell 15T scale and results converted to Rockwell 30T scale

- The temper grade of DR(Double Reduced) BP(Black Plate) shall be expressed by the Rockwell superficial hardness values(HR30Tm) or 0.2% average Yield Strength
