- Pressure Vessel & Boiler Manufacturing: Specifically designed for shells, tubesheets, heat exchanger tubing, and welded components where high-temperature strength and leak-proof integrity are mandatory.
- High-Purity Piping Systems: Used in pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and semiconductor industry piping where corrosion resistance and contamination-free joints are critical.
- Architectural & Structural Welding: Ideal for welded architectural elements, roofing, and sculptural works requiring flawless, strong welds and long-term weather resistance.
- Power Plant & Industrial Equipment: Applied in condenser tubes, feedwater heaters, and other thermal system components exposed to steam and aggressive media.
- Superior Weldability & Joint Integrity: The phosphorus content acts as a deoxidizer, preventing the formation of copper oxide during welding. This eliminates spatter, reduces porosity, and produces clean, strong, ductile welds essential for pressure-containing applications.
- Resistance to Hydrogen Embrittlement: Unlike some oxygen-bearing coppers, C12200 is not susceptible to embrittlement when brazed or welded in hydrogen-containing atmospheres, ensuring long-term structural reliability.
- Excellent Corrosion & Scaling Resistance: Performs exceptionally well in steam, freshwater, and industrial atmospheres, minimizing maintenance and extending service life in demanding environments.
- Unmatched Customization & Supply Flexibility: With an enormous production capacity and the ability to customize diameter (up to 2.5m), shape, and temper, we can supply both prototyping quantities (MOQ 10kg) and large-scale project volumes with reliable lead times.


Q1: What is the key difference between C12200 and ordinary C11000 copper?
A1: The critical difference is deoxidation. C11000 (ETP Copper) contains oxygen, which can cause embrittlement in reducing atmospheres. C12200 is deoxidized with phosphorus, making it uniquely suitable for welding, brazing, and high-temperature service without risk of hydrogen embrittlement.
Q2: Why is C12200 specifically recommended for pressure vessels?
A2: Pressure vessel codes (like ASME) require materials with proven weldability and joint integrity. C12200's phosphorus deoxidation ensures sound, defect-free welds that can withstand internal pressure, thermal cycling, and corrosive media over decades of service.
Q3: Can you provide material certification for code compliance?
A3: Yes, we provide full Mill Test Certificates (MTCs) that detail chemical composition and mechanical properties per ASTM or other specified standards. These certificates are essential for material traceability and compliance with pressure equipment directives.
Q4: What is the maximum size you can produce?
A4: Our production capability is exceptional, with a diameter range up to 2500mm (2.5 meters). We can also supply lengths up to 12 meters standard, with custom lengths available to meet specific project requirements.
Q5: What are the packaging and export details?
A5: We use standard seaworthy export packaging with water-proof paper, edge protection, and wooden pallets. For container shipping: a 20ft container can hold up to 25 tons (max length 5.8m), and a 40ft container up to 25 tons (max length 11.8m). We ship globally to customer-specified destinations.
