-
Electrical Conductors: Used in high-efficiency busbars, switchgear components, transformer windings, and conductive fasteners where minimal energy loss is critical.
-
Thermal Management Systems: Ideal for heat exchanger tubes, evaporator coils, condenser components, and industrial cooling jackets requiring optimal heat dissipation.
-
Corrosion-Resistant Piping: Applied in chemical processing pipelines, pharmaceutical fluid transfer lines, and marine plumbing systems where purity and durability are essential.
-
General Machining: Serves as premium stock for CNC machining of valves, fittings, and custom components requiring excellent formability and surface finish.

-
Ultra-High Conductivity: 99.9% copper content ensures electrical conductivity ≥100% IACS and thermal conductivity ≥388 W/m·K, meeting the highest industry standards for energy-efficient systems.
-
Superior Processing Flexibility: Available in multiple delivery conditions (hot rolled for toughness, cold drawn for precision, forged for high-stress applications) with optional heat treatments to optimize hardness, strength, and machinability.
-
Material Integrity: C11000 offers excellent weldability and brazability, though requires controlled atmospheres above 370°C to prevent hydrogen embrittlement. C12200 variant provides enhanced oxidation resistance for high-temperature welding.
-
Industrial-Grade Durability: Demonstrated corrosion resistance against non-oxidizing acids, alkaline solutions, and atmospheric exposure, ensuring long service life in demanding environments.
-
Hydrogen Embrittlement Caution: C11000 (ETP Copper) contains trace oxygen and may become brittle when annealed or welded in hydrogen-containing atmospheres above 370°C. For high-temperature reducing environments, specify phosphorus-deoxidized grades (C12000/C12200).
-
Surface Finish Options: Standard bright polished finish minimizes oxidation for immediate use. Custom surfaces (grinding, peeling) available for specialized machining or bonding applications.
-
Quality Assurance: All materials supplied with full chemical and physical certification. Production facility holds ISO 9001 certification with advanced metallurgical testing capabilities.

Q1: What is the main difference between C11000 and C12200 rods?
A1: C11000 is Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper containing oxygen, offering maximum conductivity but sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. C12200 is Phosphorus-Deoxidized Copper with added phosphorus, providing better weldability and resistance to embrittlement in high-temperature reducing atmospheres.
Q2: Can these rods be used for forging applications?
A2: Yes, we supply copper rods in forged condition with optimized grain structure for high-strength components. Forging-grade rods typically undergo controlled heat treatment (quenching/tempering) to enhance mechanical properties.
Q3: What is the lead time for custom diameters or heat treatments?
A3: Standard specifications (6-60mm diameter) ship within 20-30 days. Custom diameters, special heat treatments, or surface finishes may require 30-50 days depending on production scheduling. Rush orders available for stock items.
Q4: Do you provide material certification?
A4: Yes, all shipments include Mill Test Certificates (MTC) compliant with ASTM standards, detailing chemical composition, mechanical properties, and heat treatment records. Third-party inspection (SGS/BV) can be arranged upon request.
Q5: What packaging is used for export shipments?
A5: We use seaworthy wooden cases with waterproof lining for optimal protection. Alternative packaging (cartons, woven bags) available per client specifications. Standard loading: 20ft container (max 25 tons) or bulk vessel shipments from Shanghai, Dalian, or Shenzhen ports.
