Tin - Lead Free Bright
Specifications: (ASTM B545, MIL-T-10727)
Lead free bright tin exhibits cosmetic reflectivity and is typically used in electrical contact applications such as terminals and switching components that will not be used in solder applications. Because bright tin requires the use of organic additives that co-deposit, it is not appropriate for projects necessitating solderability.
We offer plating that is 100% Tin along with whisker inhibiting 60/40 and 90/10 Tin Lead plating. Either finish is widely used in the electronics industries, with the capability of soldering either finish.
Matte and Bright Tin Lead Plating
Specifications: (AMS-P-81728, ASTM B579, MIL-P-81728)
Alloying matte and bright tin with lead reduces the melting point, which is favorable for applications when solderability is important. This process also prevents the formation of tin whiskers. All other performance characteristics of leaded matte and bright tin are similar to that of pure tin. Neither plating method meets RoHS requirements. Because of this we recommend this application only for specific jobs.
