T4 5.6 / 2.8 Tin Coated Steel Sheet Electrolytic Tinplate T1–T5 Food Grade

T4 5.6 / 2.8 Tin Coated Steel Sheet Electrolytic Tinplate T1–T5 Food Grade

１．Product Overview

Food grade electrolytic tinplate is widely used for food cans, edible oil cans, beverage containers, paint cans, chemical packaging, crowns, rings, closures, and industrial metal packaging applications.

The product is manufactured from cold rolled steel substrate with electrolytic tin coating to provide stable corrosion resistance, clean surface quality, and reliable forming performance for can-making and packaging production.

T1–T5 temper grades support different forming and rigidity requirements, while DR8 and DR9 are suitable for higher hardness and stronger can body applications.

２．Technical Solution

The product is produced according to GB, JIS, and DIN standards using electrolytic tin coating processing technology.

Tin coating range from 1.0 to 5.6 g/m² supports different corrosion resistance requirements for food packaging and industrial storage applications.

Bright, stone, silver, and matte finishes support decorative printing, lacquering, coating, and packaging appearance requirements.

BA and CA annealing processes support stable hardness control and forming performance for stamping, shallow drawing, and deep drawing applications.

３．Specifications

４．Application
