        Subject:        Re: [TN] Zinc Plating Finish


Hi Victor!

What will probably happen is that the Zinc will start to corrode because
of the galvanic action between itself and the tin, or tin / lead. Go to:

http://www.ccfast.com/ccfcorrosion.html

There you will see a Galvanic Series chart, and a simple explaination
about Galvanic action. Zinc, and Tin or Tin / Lead isn't all that far
apart in the chart, but far enough that the Zinc will corrode.

-Steve Gregory-


Fellow TechNetters:

   What are the exposures of having or selecting a ZINC plating finish for
an ELECTRICAL CONTACT such as a solder less
crimp connector and straight pin connector.   What can occur if these
finishes are mixed mated with a SnPb or Sn finish surface.

Victor,
