Single Reduced Cold Rolled Tinplate Sheet for Cans, Lids and Metal Packaging

GDD Metal supplies single reduced cold rolled tinplate sheets for food cans, beverage cans, metal lids, crown caps, aerosol cans, printed tin boxes and general metal packaging. The product is made from low-carbon cold rolled steel with a protective tin coating on the surface, offering good strength, clean surface quality, corrosion resistance and excellent processing performance.

Single reduced tinplate is widely used by can manufacturers and packaging factories because it is easy to print, coat, cut, weld, stamp and form. With stable thickness tolerance, suitable temper selection and different tin coating weights, it can meet the production requirements of various metal packaging products.

What Is Single Reduced Tinplate?

Single reduced tinplate, also called SR tinplate, is produced by reducing the steel substrate to the required thickness through cold rolling, followed by annealing and temper rolling. Compared with ordinary thin steel sheet, tinplate has better surface protection and is more suitable for packaging products that require cleanliness, safety, printability and corrosion resistance.

The tin coating helps protect the steel base from oxidation, while the steel substrate provides mechanical strength for forming and packaging use. This combination makes tinplate sheet a reliable material for both food-grade packaging and industrial metal containers.

Key Advantages

  • Good corrosion resistance with protective tin coating
  • Clean and smooth surface suitable for printing and coating
  • Excellent formability for stamping, bending and can making
  • Food packaging material with non-toxic and odorless performance
  • Easy to weld, cut and process on automatic production lines
  • Available in different tempers, surface finishes and coating weights

Surface Finish Options

GDD Metal can supply tinplate sheets with different surface finishes according to the final product, printing method and appearance requirement. Choosing the correct surface finish helps improve printing performance, forming quality and final packaging appearance.

Bright Finish Glossy and smooth surface, suitable for decorative packaging and high-quality printed products.
Stone Finish Fine directional texture, commonly used for cans, lids and printed tinplate packaging.
Silver Finish Metallic surface appearance with good visual effect for packaging and container products.
Matte Finish Lower-reflection surface, suitable for packaging products requiring a soft and non-glare appearance.

Base Steel Types

Different base steel types can be selected according to the packaging contents, forming process and corrosion resistance requirements. For food cans, chemical containers or deep drawing products, selecting the correct substrate is important for stable production and long-term performance.

MR General-purpose base steel with good overall mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.
L Suitable for packaging acidic contents and products requiring better internal corrosion resistance.
D Suitable for deep drawing and two-piece can production with higher processing requirements.
SPCC Common cold rolled base material for general packaging and industrial container applications.

Tin Coating and Corrosion Protection

Tin coating weight is one of the key factors affecting the corrosion resistance and service performance of tinplate sheet. Equal tin coating and differential tin coating can be supplied according to the packaging contents, processing method and customer requirements.

  • Equal tin coating: same coating weight on both sides
  • Differential tin coating: different coating weight on each side
  • Common coating options include 1.1/1.1, 2.8/2.8 and 5.6/5.6 g/m²
  • Customized coating weight can be discussed according to end use

Temper Selection and Application

Tinplate temper should be selected according to the forming process and final packaging structure. Softer tempers are suitable for drawing and forming, while harder tempers are commonly used for can bodies, lids, crown caps and other products requiring higher strength.

T1 - T2 Suitable for products requiring better formability, drawing and special forming performance.
T3 Commonly used for food cans, beverage cans, general lids and packaging components.
T4 - T5 Suitable for can bodies, closures, crown caps and products requiring higher rigidity.
DR8 - DR9 Double reduced tinplate options for thin gauge and high-strength packaging applications.

Main Applications

Tinplate sheet is widely used in the packaging industry because it offers strength, printability, weldability and surface protection. It is suitable for both food-grade packaging and non-food industrial containers.

  • Food cans and beverage cans
  • Easy-open ends, metal lids and crown caps
  • Aerosol cans and chemical cans
  • Paint cans, oil cans and grease containers
  • Cookie tins, tea tins, gift boxes and decorative packaging
  • Printed tinplate sheet for metal packaging production

Processing Performance

Our tinplate sheet is suitable for automatic can-making lines and metal packaging production. The material can be processed by cutting, slitting, printing, lacquering, welding, stamping, bending and forming. Stable flatness and surface quality help reduce production defects and improve finished product consistency.

  • Good flatness for printing and cutting
  • Clean surface for coating and lacquering
  • Stable hardness for forming and stamping
  • Reliable weldability for can body production
  • Suitable for high-volume packaging manufacturing
