How big is the difference between tinplate and stainless steel 316L?
316L is a kind of austenitic stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance. The tinplate is not comparable. 316L is superior to tinplate in appearance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance and strength. Of course, the price is much higher than that of tinplate.
It will be the steel strength and formability and corrosion resistance of tin soldering, and beautiful appearance with a material, corrosion resistant, non-toxic, high strength and good ductility properties.
Tinplate, also known as tin plated iron, is the common name of tin plated steel sheet. It is a cold-rolled low carbon steel sheet or strip coated with commercially pure tin on both sides. Tin plays a major role in preventing corrosion and rusting.
