bedra11000

Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper

It is produced by the direct conversion of selected refined cathodes under carefully controlled conditions. One of its most remarkable qualities is its high electrical and thermal conductivity. This alloy also possesses excellent fabrication properties, allowing it to be easily bent, soldered, drilled, welded, and formed to meet almost any design specification.

 

Typical applications:

It is mainly used in the electrical industry, including welding fixtures, anodes, busbars in electrical power installations, ground straps, terminals, EV connectors, commutators, and current-carrying hardware.
