All parts affected by this notification will now be assembled using Matte Tin plating. Purpose The purpose of the change at our supplier is to standardize their process to the Pb-free industry trend and in alignment with decreasing Tin Lead customer demand. This standardization will bring them in line with green environment (Pb-free) initiatives, eliminate a low efficiency process and provide better, more stable quality and service.
