Color grey-white in a plated condition
Very high luster in fused condition.
Soft but very ductile
Good corrosion resistance (should meet 24 hours of 5% salt spray condition)
Excellent metal bonding properties
Not recommended for low temperature applications (loses adhesion and structure changes occur when exposed to temperature -40C)
EXCELLENT electrical conductor
Please note that if a bright finish is desired in lieu of fused tin, bright tin plate must be specified.
