- Description
Copper 18150 hex bar (chromium zirconium copper) is a high performance alloy designed to deliver an excellent balance of electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and resistance to softening at elevated temperatures. Strengthened through precipitation hardening, C18150 provides significantly greater strength and durability than pure copper while maintaining good conductivity, making it ideal for components exposed to high current loads and thermal cycling. Its resistance to wear, deformation, and thermal fatigue ensures reliable long term performance in demanding environments. The hexagonal profile enables efficient machining of fasteners, fittings, and precision components requiring tight tolerances and consistent geometry.
Applications: Electrical contacts, resistance welding components, connectors, switchgear parts, fasteners, industrial and high temperature tooling.
