Tellurium Copper Alloy, by gradually adding designed weight percent of 99.99% pure tellurium into molten commercial pure 9.99% copper cathode in the power-frequency induction furnace, and meanwhile a certain of phosphorus as the deoxidant and a little microelements needed is added into the molten liquid to get desirable tellurium copper alloy.
Being superior free cutting performance , which enabling a much higher machining speed than that is possible with pure copper, the machinability scale is rated as 90, both cold working or hot forming are practicable, and with good arc-resistance performance, hydrogen embrittlement, higher electric conductivity(90% IACS) and thermal conductivity, and anti- corrosiveness, Tellurium Copper Alloy (C14500,CuTeP) is mainly used for welding (hydrogen cutting, acetylene cutting and argon-arc welding tool), chemical industry and mineral machinery such as automobile carburetor nozzle, welding torch tips, gas cutting nozzles, storage battery head and air conditioning connector, electrical switches on power semiconductors, transformer & circuit breaker terminals, switch gears and valve manufacturing etc.
All products conform to RoHS regulations.
