Electrolytic Tinplate (ETP/SPTE) manufacturer

Electrolytic tinplate (ETP), also known as Steel Plate Tin Electroplated (SPTE), is a cold-rolled steel sheet or coil coated with a thin layer of tin. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and surface smoothness, making it ideal for food and beverage packaging, industrial containers, and metal printing applications.

Electrolytic Tinplate (ETP) Overview

Electrolytic tinplate (ETP) is a cold-rolled steel sheet coated with a thin layer of tin, offering reliable corrosion resistance, mechanical stability, and surface flatness. It is suitable for food and beverage packaging, industrial containers, and metal printing applications. ETP is available in both sheet and coil forms, providing flexibility for a range of downstream production processes.

Material & Surface Characteristics

The surface of ETP provides a smooth, corrosion-resistant substrate suitable for stamping, deep drawing, and welding operations. Its consistent flatness and mechanical stability ensure reliable performance during forming and printing processes. Surface treatments can be adjusted to meet specific production or coating requirements without affecting the material’s integrity.

Specification Range

ETP can be supplied in coil or sheet format, with thickness, width, and hardness adapted to meet customer or downstream processing needs. While specific numerical parameters are determined according to production requirements, the material maintains consistent quality suitable for industrial applications.
