C182 is a copper alloy with good hardness and electrical conductivity brought about by a combination of heat treatment and cold work. Chromium copper is useful for electrical applications where resistance to deformation at high temperature is necessary.
Typical Industry Applications:
- Electrical conductors requiring strength greater than standard copper
- Electron tube grid side rods
- High temperature contacts and switch gears
- Electric motor and generator components.
- Electrical connectors and cable
- Circuit breaker parts
- Wear plates on heavy equipment
- Heat sinks
- Shafts and arms that carry current
- Plastic mold components
- Spot welding, resistance welding and flash welding tips and electrodes
Specifications (typical, but not limited to):
- RWMA CL2
Generally Available Forms:
- Flat bar
- Plate
- Round bar
- Tube
