Tin Free Steel is also called Chromium Coated Steel or TFS. TFS is an electrolytic chrome plated steel consisting of a thin layer of chromium and a layer of chromium oxide deposited on the steel base. TFS has a very beautiful metallic chrome luster, excellent paint adhesion, excellent heat resistance, excellent filiform rust resistance, excellent sulphur blackening resistance and alkali resistance. But the weldability and formability of TFS is not as good as ETP. And TFS is not compatible with soldering,

TFS is often used in the manufacture of two-piece cans, shallow-drawn cans, crown caps, screw caps, can tops, all kinds of easy open ends (EOE), food package bottoms, lug caps, electronic accessories and cables, etc.

We can provide TFS with various specifications with temper ranging from T1 to T5 and DR7 to DR10. The ID of the TFS’s packaging coil has 420mm and 508mm in options.
