It is used to coat food cans, to keep them from rusting. Tin has low toxicity, so you can safely store food in tin-plated steel cans.
It is also used to make solder, which is used to join electrical components into circuits.

Is tin a non ferrous?
Tin is characterized by a low-melting point (450°F), fluidity when molten, readiness to form alloys with other metals, relative softness, and good formability. The metal is nontoxic, solderable, and has a high boiling point. The temperature range between melting and boiling points exceeds that for nearly all other metals (which facilitates casting). Upon severe deformation, tin and tin-rich alloys work soften. Principal uses for tin are as a constituent of solder and as a coating for steel (tinplate, or terneplate). Tin is also used in bronze, pewter, and bearing alloys.
