The metal in an Altoids tin is typically about 0.25 mm to 0.30 mm thick. This thickness provides a balance between durability and the ability to be easily opened and closed. The tin is made from a type of steel that is coated to prevent rust and preserve the contents inside.

Is tin metal or non metal?

Tin has two forms (allotropes) one is "white tin" (beta-tin) which is a metal although some chemists/metrial scientists would call it a "poor metal"- and "grey tin" (alpha-tin), a low temperature form, which has a similar structure to diamond and more covalent in character. So one allotrope is a metal and the other isn't. Probably the answer a school teacher expects is tin is metal.
