Copper

C10200 is an oxygen-free copper, which is used mainly in electronics due to high electrical conductivity. This high purity alloy (99.95 Cu+Ag) is produced without the use of metal or metalloid deoxidizers. Excessive amounts of impurities reduce conductivity. This alloy has excellent resistance to atmospheric corrosion and can be fabricated by a variety of hot and cold methods. Typical applications: busbars, bus conductors, waveguides, hollow conductors, lead-in wires and anodes for vacuum tubes, vacuum seals, transistor components, glass to metal seals, coaxial cables, klystrons, microwave tubes and rectifiers.

C14500 Tellurium Copper or Tellurium-Bearing has applications in screw machine products and parts requiring high conductivity, extensive machining, corrosion resistance, copper color, or a combination of these; electrical connectors, motor and switch parts, plumbing fittings, welding torch tips, transistor bases and furnace brazed articles. Plates can also be forged and machined from this alloy.

C15000 this alloy is an important and unique copper alloy with high electrical conductivity, hardness and ductility, moderate strength, and excellent resistance to softening at elevated temperatures. The addition of 0.15% zirconium (Zr) to copper results in a heat treatable copper alloy which may be solution treated and subsequently aged to produce these desirable properties. Rod is supplied from the mill in the fully aged and drawn condition so no further heat treatment is required by the fabricator.

C16200 offers a unique combination of high tensile strength and high electrical conductivity in wire for an industry where these properties are generally considered incompatible and diametrically opposed. The cadmium noticeably increases the copper’s strength and resistance to softening and stress relaxation with minimal decrease in its electrical conductivity. It also produces an alloy noted for its malleability and toughness and spring quality.

Because of its good strength and wear resistance, C16200 was used for low load transmission lines in rural areas for its earliest application. Here, line loss due to the lower conductivity of this alloy was offset by the added tensile strength which required fewer poles between spans, thus lower cost per mile of line. Today, it is commonly used to make trolley wire.
