bedra 15100

Zirconium Copper

Characteristics:

This alloy is an important and unique copper alloy with high electrical conductivity, hardness, ductility, moderate strength, and excellent resistance to softening at elevated temperatures. The addition of 0.05 to 0.15% Zr to copper results in a heat-treatable copper alloy, which may be solution treated and subsequently aged to produce these desirable properties.

Typical applications:

Spot welding electrode and electrode cap, especially suitable for coated sheets. Components of electronic devices and connectors.
