   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbor_Freight_Tools

   Harbor Freight Tools, commonly referred to as Harbor Freight, is an American privately held tool and equipment retailer, headquartered in Calabasas, California. It operates a chain of retail stores, as well as an e-commerce business. The company employs over 28,000 people in the United States, [5] and has over 1,500 locations in 48 states. [6] [7]

3. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   Effective crimp connections deform the metal of the connector past its yield point so that the compressed wire causes tension in the surrounding connector, and these forces counter each other to create a high degree of static friction. Due to the elastic element in crimped connections, they are highly resistant to vibration and thermal shock. [39]

4. Titanium nitride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_nitride

   Titanium nitride (TiN; sometimes known as tinite) is an extremely hard ceramic material, often used as a physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating on titanium alloys, steel, carbide, and aluminium components to improve the substrate's surface properties.

5. Britannia metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia_metal

   Britannia metal (also called britannium, Britannia ware, [1] or Vickers White Metal [2]) is a specific type of pewter alloy, favoured for its silvery appearance and smooth surface. The composition by weight is typically about 92–93% tin , 5–6% antimony , and 2% copper .

6. Tinning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinning

   Hot tin-dipping is the process of immersing a part into a bath of pure molten tin at a temperature greater than 450 °F or 232 °C. Tinplate made via hot-dipped tin plating is made by cold rolling steel or iron, pickling to remove any scale , annealing to remove any strain hardening , and then coating it with a thin layer of tin .

7. White metal - Wikipedia

   Bars and ingots of Babbitt metal. Tin-lead and tin-copper alloys such as Babbitt metal [2] have a low melting point, which is ideal for use as solder, but these alloys also have ideal characteristics for plain bearings. Most importantly for bearings, the material should be hard and wear-resistant and have a low coefficient of friction.

9. Whisker (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisker_(metallurgy)

   Metal whiskering is a crystalline metallurgical phenomenon involving the spontaneous growth of tiny, filiform hairs from a metallic surface. The effect is primarily seen on elemental metals but also occurs with alloys. The mechanism behind metal whisker growth is not well understood, but seems to be encouraged by compressive mechanical stresses ...
