We buy tin and tin-based alloys: solders (Sn-Pb solders), Babbitt metals (bearing alloys), anodes, and pure metal ingots.
Tin is a metal widely used in electronics, the manufacture of solders and bearing alloys, the cable industry, and industrial equipment. Due to its excellent soldering and anti-friction properties, tin is applied in various industrial alloys and the production of specialized materials.
Minimum : from 0.1 kg.
Analysis : Determination of tin percentage based on alloy type and marking.
