Kalgard Tin Plating for Solderability and Conductivity

Tin plating is a specialized industrial finish primarily used in the electrical and food sectors. It offers excellent “wetting” for soldering and a non-toxic surface for sensitive environments.

Key Performance Advantages

  • Excellent Solderability: The preferred choice for components that must be soldered to PCBs or busbars.
  • High Ductility: The coating is soft and malleable, allowing the part to be formed or bent after plating without cracking.
  • Non-Toxic: Safe for use in equipment that comes into contact with food or drinking water.
  • Low Contact Resistance: Ensures efficient electrical flow across connectors.

Typical Applications

  • Electrical terminals, busbars, and battery connectors.
  • Food processing machinery and kitchen appliance hardware.

Trusted by industry professionals for parts that cannot fail in the field.
