Why Choose Artificer for Tin Plating?

Competitive, Transparent Pricing

• Pricing is based on surface area to be plated, not the weight of the copper.

• This provides a more accurate and fair cost, especially on complex or cut parts.

• Our rates are significantly more competitive than larger providers.

Next-Day Turnaround

• Once we receive the material, it typically ships back within 24 hours.

• Ideal for just-in-time production environments or urgent orders.

Use Our Copper or Yours

• We maintain a large inventory of bare copper, especially in larger sizes.

• Alternatively, we can plate your supplied copper to your specifications.

Flexible Processing Capabilities

• We can tin plate parts before or after hole punching.

• Most current work is plated after processing for best results.

• We also offer shearing to length, hole punching, deburring, and forming—all in-house.

Optimal Length Capacity

• We can plate copper parts up to 90 inches long, covering the majority of processed bus bar applications.

• This length was carefully chosen to minimize waste and maximize efficiency.

Selective Plating = Higher Scrap Value

• We only tin the necessary section of the part—leaving the off-cuts as bare copper.

• Bare copper scrap is worth up to $0.50/lb more than tinned copper, providing direct cost savings.

• Plus, you’re not paying to plate material that ends up as scrap.

Industry Standard Quality

• All tin plating is performed to ASTM B545-13 standards for electrodeposited coatings of tin.
