CU9673 Oxygen-Free Silver Copper Strip

Oxygen-Free Silver Copper Strip Description

Oxygen-Free Silver Copper Strip is manufactured from copper alloys C10500 and C10700, ensuring minimal oxygen content for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance. The uniform strip form facilitates integration into electrical connectors and conductive components. Its refined composition minimises impurities, crucial for stable performance in both electronics and industrial systems. The controlled manufacturing process guarantees consistent material properties necessary for demanding applications.

Oxygen-Free Silver Copper Strip Applications

1.       Electronics
   - Used as conductive traces in printed circuit boards to achieve stable current flow by leveraging low oxygen-induced resistivity.
   - Applied as interconnects in high-frequency devices to reduce signal attenuation by utilising the alloy’s controlled composition.

2.       Industrial Electrical Systems
   - Serves as terminal strips in power distribution units to optimise energy transfer by exploiting enhanced conductivity.
   - Used in wiring for automated machinery to maintain efficient energy distribution by ensuring consistent material properties.

Oxygen-Free Silver Copper Strip Packing

The strip is packaged in moisture-resistant, anti-static protective wrapping and placed within rigid, crush-proof boxes. Desiccant inserts limit humidity exposure to protect material integrity during transit. It is recommended that the product be stored in a temperature-controlled, dry environment. Customised packaging options with specialised labelling and compartmentalisation are available to meet specific logistical requirements.
