Copper & Copper Alloy Material Library

We stock a wide range of high-purity coppers and key copper alloys, enabling optimal selection for conductivity, machinability, strength, and wear resistance.

Copper 101 / C110 (Oxygen-Free Electronic Copper):

The purest commercially available grade (99.99% Cu). Offers exceptional electrical and thermal conductivity. Primarily used for high-frequency conductors, waveguides, vacuum components, and other critical electronic applications where high purity is essential.

Copper C110 (Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper):

The most common and widely used copper (99.9% Cu). Provides excellent electrical conductivity and formability. The standard choice for electrical components, busbars, connectors, and general conductive parts.

Copper C932 (SAE 660 - High-Leaded Tin Bronze):

A bearing bronze with excellent machinability, good anti-galling properties, and high load capacity. Ideal for bushings, bearings, thrust washers, and other applications requiring low friction and wear resistance against steel.

Copper 260 (Cartridge Brass - C26000):

A classic 70/30 brass with superb cold-working properties, good strength, and excellent corrosion resistance. Widely used for plumbing components, electrical sockets, connectors, decorative hardware, and custom machined parts requiring a balance of formability and durability.

Copper 360 (Free-Cutting Brass - C36000):

Known as the standard for machinability among copper alloys. Offers high-speed machining capabilities, producing small, broken chips and excellent surface finishes. The preferred choice for high-volume production of complex parts like gears, fittings, valves, and screw machine components.

Advanced Manufacturing and Process Capabilities

Addressing Machining Challenges: We possess specialized machining parameters and process expertise to overcome the gummy and easily deformable nature of copper materials (especially pure copper), ensuring high precision and superior surface quality.

Multi-Axis Precision Machining: Equipped with 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis simultaneous CNC machining centers for efficiently producing complex electrical contacts, custom heat sinks, and internal channels/cavities.

High-Precision Turning and Turn-Mill Compounds: Achieves single-setup completion of precision bushings, connector housings, and other rotary parts, guaranteeing tight tolerances and concentricity.

Technical Support: Our engineering team provides Design for Manufacturability (DFM) analysis tailored to copper's characteristics, offering expert advice on material selection, structural optimization, and cost control.

Comprehensive Surface Finishing Options

To meet the functional, durability, and aesthetic requirements of copper parts, we offer a range of post-processing services:

Electroplating:

Options include nickel, tin, silver, or gold plating to enhance corrosion resistance, improve solderability, or increase surface conductivity and contact resistance stability./div>
Passivation / Chemical Passivation:

Forms a protective film to prevent copper surface oxidation/tarnishing (patina), preserving its natural color and base properties.
Polishing / Mirror Polishing:

Achieves a highly reflective, bright surface to enhance aesthetics, often used for decorative pieces or applications requiring reduced surface adsorption.
Bead Blasting / Brushing:

Creates a uniform matte or brushed texture, improving tactile feel and visual appearance.
Anti-Tarnish Treatment (BTA / Benzotriazole Type):

Forms a transparent organic protective layer to effectively prevent oxidation during storage and transportation.

Rigorous Quality Control System

We understand that copper components are often used in critical electrical and structural applications. We implement strict quality control:

Full-Process Inspection: From material certification, throughout the entire machining process, to the final finished product.

Professional Inspection Equipment: In addition to using Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) for geometric dimension inspection, we can provide conductivity testing or specialized surface roughness inspection upon request.

Document Traceability: We provide a complete quality documentation package, including Material Certificates (CoC), First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR), and critical dimension inspection reports.
