NIPPON KINZOKU's Stainless Steel Wide Width Foil

Steel grade:

All steel grades (SUS304, SUS301, SUS430, etc.)

Finish:

Spring finish, TA finish (Tension Annealing), BA finish (Bright Annealing)

Features:

1. Wide Width: Max. 600mm

2. High Precision: Min. longitudinal variation of thickness ±1μm

3. Surface: Bright Surface (BS), White Surface (WS)

4. Unit weight: Max. 0.5kg/mm

5. Min. thickness: 0.02mm

Applications

One of the features of our stainless steel foils is that we produce wide width foil.
Applications include surface heating elements used in automobiles, FPC reinforcement plates, and metal masks used in electronic devices, and are used as composite materials with films etc. attached. In particular, there are few material manufacturers that produce materials with thickness of less than 30 μm and a width of nearly 600 mm, contributing to improved processing yields and productivity.

Surface texture

We meet various requirements for surface texture depending on the application.
In tact switch applications, there is concern about cracking due to minute surface irregularities during repeated use. In such cases, we recommend a Bright surface (BS finish) with a smooth surface, which contributes to improved durability.
For the exterior of rechargeable batteries and connectors, on the contrary, we recommend a rougher White surface (WS finish), which contributes to improved adhesion with adhesives (exterior of rechargeable batteries) and visibility of laser engraving on the product surface (connectors).
