Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the typical lead time for this tinplate?
A: For standard sizes and quantities, lead time is 15–20 days after order confirmation. Custom sizes may require 20–25 days. We offer express shipping options for urgent orders. -
Q: Can you provide samples for testing before bulk order?
A: Yes, we provide free samples (A4 size or small coil) for quality evaluation. The buyer only needs to cover the shipping cost. Samples are typically dispatched within 3–5 days. -
Q: Is this tinplate suitable for two-piece can manufacturing?
A: Absolutely. The T3 temper and 0.25mm thickness offer excellent drawability and ironing properties, making it ideal for both DRD (draw-redraw) and DWI (draw-wall iron) processes. -
Q: What is the difference between matte finish and bright finish?
A: Matte finish has a rougher surface (Ra 0.3–0.5 μm) which improves ink adhesion and reduces glare during printing. Bright finish is smoother and more reflective but may require additional surface treatment for printing. -
Q: Do you offer different tin coating weights?
A: Yes, we can produce coating weights from 1.0/1.0 to 5.6/5.6 g/m² per side. Please specify your requirement when ordering. The 2.8/2.8 g/m² is a balanced choice for most food can applications. -
Q: How do you ensure the tinplate is free from oil stains or scratches?
A: Our production lines are equipped with advanced cleaning and inspection systems. Each coil is edge-trimmed and surface-inspected before packaging. We also use anti-static films and edge protectors to prevent damage during transport. -
Q: What certifications do you hold for food contact materials?
A: Our products comply with FDA 21 CFR 175.300, EU Regulation 1935/2004, and Chinese GB 4806.9-2016. We can provide certificates of compliance upon request. -
Q: Can you supply tinplate in coils instead of sheets?
A: Yes, we offer both sheet and coil forms. Coils are commonly supplied in widths of 600–1050 mm with inner diameter 508 mm. We can also slit to narrower widths per your requirements.
