Description
C18200 Round Bars / CuCr Round Bars
C18200 Round Bars is Copper Chromium is the primary copper alloy used for resistance spot and seam welding. C18200 is a high conductivity copper alloy that obtains optimum properties from both heat treatment and cold working. C18200 offers resistance to softening at eleveated temperatures along with good stregnth and hardness. In addition to resistance welding applications C182 is used for numerous electrical applications where resistance to deformation at high temperature is required.
Textron Steel and Alloys can supply C18200 Chromium Copper in Round Bar, Rod, Flat Bar etc. It is mainly used for parts in the electrical and industrial markets. It is excellent in being cold formed and good in being hot formed.
