Key Highlights Tin zinc wire is the standard feedstock for capacitor end metallizing (schoopage) in the electronics manufacturing industry. Sn80Zn20 (80% tin, 20% zinc) is the most widely used alloy composition for capacitor end termination. Tin zinc alloy wire is fully RoHS compliant, making it the preferred lead-free choice for electronics applications. Tin zinc coatings also find use in food …

Key Highlights Zinc aluminium alloy wire (Zn-15Al) delivers two to four times better corrosion resistance than pure zinc wire in marine and industrial environments. The alloy provides both galvanic protection from zinc and enhanced barrier protection through aluminium oxide formation. Zn-Al coatings are the preferred specification for bridges, offshore platforms, wind turbines, and marine structures. Compatible with standard arc spray …

Key Highlights Zinc rods serve as primary feedstock for flame spray metallizing systems used across industrial coating applications. High-purity zinc rods (99.9% or better) ensure consistent coating quality and electrochemical protection performance. Zinc rods are also used as sacrificial anodes in cathodic protection of pipelines, tanks, and marine structures. Rod diameter must match the specific flame spray gun model being …
