Single Reduced Cold Rolled Tinplate

Single reduced product is cold rolled to the finished gauge, then continuously annealed and coated with a thin layer of tin.

Double Reduced Cold Rolled Tinplate

Double reduced product is given a partial cold reduction to reach an intermediate gauge, then annealed and given another cold reduction to the final gauge prior to coating with tin. The resulting product is stiffer, harder, and stronger than single reduced, in some cases, allowing customers to utilize lighter gauge steel in their application.

Electrolytic Tinplate (ETP)

ETP (Electrolytic Tinplate). Low carbon steel coated with tin with a layer between them of steel-tin alloy and destined to be used mainly in the production of metal cans. Tin provides good weldability and electrical conductivity, as well as high corrosion resistance.

Tin Free Steel (TFS)

Tin Free Steel (TFS) is produced by applying electrolytic chromic acid treatment over steel sheets. This steel product was developed to meet economic requirements, and excels tinplate in paintability, paint adhesion, and economy. It is widely used for making beverage cans and 18-liter cans.
