Product information "Tin"

Tin Solution - Tin Electrolyte - self tinning from Betzmann Galvanik 

 

Our versatile tin plating solution is used in applications ranging from the cookware industry to high-end electronics.

Recommended electrode: platinum electrode or graphite electrode

From 3 volts 

 

Can be plated on copper, nickel or thin gold layer

Please note: This is an air sensitive solution. When not using the solution, keep the lid tightly closed and take steps to minimize air space in the bottle.

 

You can do this by adding marbles or glass beads to the bottle, squeezing out the excess air at the top of the bottle, or drawing up the solution and storing it in one of our storage syringes.

 

Failure to follow the above precautions may result in degeneration of the tin in the solution.

 

Features Applications
It plates fast and can be brought to a high shine using MPU or MPU course.
  • non-toxic finish makes it a good choice for coating cooking utensils
 
  • useful in electronics and plumbing as it aids solderability – no need for fluxes
 
  • low tarnish finish that polishes well

Anode sleeve fuzzy
Anode pad / tampon / anode sleeve / fuzzy sleeve / replacement fabric pad puffy from Betzmann Galvanik.    This puffy fabric pad / anode sleeve or also called tampon is absolutely recommended for all plating processes. Optimally suitable for all coatings and electrolytes.  The coating of larger areas is also quite fast with this pad.   The insertion hole is larger than the electrode and therefore it happens that the moist  anode pad slips off. Therefore, fix the pad on the electrode with a small rubber band.

Carbon Electrode 6mm
Graphite round rod - Graphite rod anode - Graphite electrode for gold plating.  Graphite electrodes are ultimate for all coatings. The advantage is that in some coatings with stainless steel electrodes, the dislodged metal parts disturb the coating. This does not happen with graphite electrodes, because graphite also filters out contaminated liquids. With bath electroplating, they also need to be replaced occasionally as they slowly dissolve during the plating process.   With pad electroplating, simply loosen the screw on the handle and replace with a new one.   Diameter 6 mm, length approx. 9 cm    Features Used for Doesn’t contaminate Cleaner Activating and electro-cleaning  Its resistive properties help to heat the solution you’re plating with Chromium plating, which needs to be plated at 25 degrees celsius; its natural heating action helps to maintain the solution’s optimal temperature Low cost Can be used for all plating processes but carbon electrodes deteriorate over a period of time and discolour swabs (discolouration does not affect the plating quality)

Stainless Steel Electrode 6mm
Stainless Steel Electrode 6mm:   This electrode is ideal for chrome stripping and electro-cleaning. To swap over to a stainless steel electrode, simply loosen the existing electrode and fit in the new one.  Stainless steel electrodes should not be used for any other processes such as the metal can cause contamination  of the plating solution resulting in considerable wastage of gold metal.    Selecting the best electrode for the job is very important.
