Matthew, my wife and I LOVE english breakfast! We spent a couple of weeks in Cumbria, the countryside, and were impressed by the richness on the tables. We could easily be active the rest of the day after such meals. Of course, I understand all brits can't have that habit, people don't consume calories like in old days...
Any idea about tin thickness?

If you think that we eat that lot for breakfast in the UK your completely wrong.
These days it's Cornflake & bran for all.

Subject: [TN] Solder tags and tin thickness
Morning all, what about a simple q while melting first meal of the day? (US:donuts and coffee ; UK:scrambled eggs, black pudding, sausage, marmelade, plums,juice, milk, scones, bacon, coffee, cheese, tomatoes, etc)
Solder tags, pin, eyelets for printed boards, pressfit. We have found large variations in tin thickness from various manufacturers. Checked about 20 known makers, and none specified exactly what plating they had. Just 'tinned brass' or 'special high quality tin process' or 'solderable plating' etc. Too thin tin will make the pins less solderable after some months, while exaggerated thickness will cost some extra and cause tolerance problems. So, gentlemen, what do you prefer for a Veroboard pin or a backplane ditto? I've proposed minimum 10 microns over nickel if the pins are brass. Or minimum 25 microns of tin without nickel barrier. Does this sound reasonable?
