This category is for companies requiring tin bars. Tin is a silver-white, lightweight, soft, and plastic metal. It belongs to rare and scattered elements. Tin is extracted from ores containing not more than 0.1 percent of this substance. Tin has high corrosion resistance. It can combine various metals forming strong and resistant to external influences connection.
In 2017 the global tin production was 290,000 tons. Of these, 100,000 tons were manufactured in China, and 50,000 tons in Indonesia. Bolivia, Peru, Myanmar, and Australia are also large tin producers.
Tin ingots are used in metallurgy for the manufacturing of different alloys. Due to its non-toxicity and corrosion resistance the metal is widely used in the food industry. Besides, it is used in the form of coatings on various food contact items. Copper wires are also covered with tin. In electronic devices production tin is used as a solder. It is a component of many alloys with copper, zinc, and antimony. Tin ingots are the raw material for other semi-finished products.
On the platform, the suppliers offer ingots of various price categories depending on the alloy composition or tin ingot purity. The price can vary from $500-1500 to $20,000 per ton and even more. The minimum order begins with 1 ton. The ingot weight is 25 kg. In this category there is a great variety of offers to meet the different needs.
