What is Tin Metal Foil 0.2mm? It is a thin foil of the elemental metal Tin, chemical formula Sn. It has versatile applications in both laboratory and industrial settings, leveraging its properties like low toxicity, corrosion resistance, and low melting point. In labs, it's used for sealing, covering, and protecting samples and equipment, including sealing bottles, covering corks, and creating weighing boats. Industrially, it plays a role in low-temperature soldering, specialised alloys, and even as a lead replacement in electronics. 

Consistent Quality: We provide only high-quality Tin Metal Foil 0.2mm, ensuring reliable and consistent performance for all applications.

Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Sourced and packaged in non-toxic, chemical-resistant containers to ensure safe handling and preserve product quality during transport.

Frequent Uses

Sealing and Covering
Tin foil is used to seal bottles, culture tubes, and other containers to prevent contamination, reduce evaporation, and maintain a sterile environment.

Creating Labware
Can be formed into weighing boats or dishes for various lab procedures. Also suitable for use in autoclaves due to its ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures. 

Temperature and Moisture Control
Can be used to minimise evaporation or heat loss during experiments. 

Solders
High-purity tin foil is used in the production of low-temperature solders.
