What is DIN 50960 plating?
I am trying to find information on DIN 50960 plating. What exactly is it (tin/nickel/zinc/etc.)? Is there a website where I can find more info or the full specs?

This standard, as well as most others, can be obtained from Global Engineering.

. . . or follow the link to
DIN 50960-1. Techstreet offers finishing.com a small commission which covers our time, so we can save you a step by linking directly to the particular spec in question.
I don't believe that DIN 50960 is a particular type of plating, but a document about how to specify plating.
