Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: What is the difference between C11000 and other copper alloys?

A: C11000 offers the highest electrical and thermal conductivity among copper alloys, while other alloys may offer higher strength or specialized properties.

Q: Can C11000 be used in high-temperature applications?

A: While it has good thermal conductivity, UNS C11000 Copper should not be used above 200°C in oxidizing atmospheres due to potential embrittlement.

Q: What surface finishes are available?

A: We offer bright polished, mill finish, and cleaned surfaces depending on application requirements.

Q: Do you provide custom sizes and shapes?

A: Yes, we can provide custom profiles, sizes, and tempers to meet specific requirements.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: We use protective packaging, including plastic wrapping, wooden crates, and custom packaging for sensitive applications.
