Tinplates / Electrolytic Tinplate is a cold-rolled, low-carbon steel coated with a thin layer of tin on both sides. This combination provides the durability of steel with the corrosion resistance and weldability of tin. Commonly used in making cans and containers for food, beverages, and packaging, tinplate ensures that the steel does not corrode or taint the contents. Its lightweight and strength make it ideal for various applications including bottle caps, electrical components, appliance parts, and signs.
