Detailed Description

C15000 Details & Applications: C15000 Zirconium Copper CuZr – UNS.C15000 Zirconium Copper is an excellent and unique copper alloy with high electrical conductivity, hardness, and ductility, moderate strength, and excellent resistance to softening at elevated temperatures. The addition of 0.15% zirconium (Zr) to copper results in a heat treatable copper alloy which may be solution treated and subsequently aged to produce these desirable properties. Rod is supplied from the mill in the fully aged and drawn condition so no further heat treatment is required by the fabricator. The softening temperature of properly heat treated C15000 rod exceeds 500°C as compared to unalloyed, pure copper which softens at 200°C and silver bearing coppers which soften at 350°C. Typical Application for C15000 Zirconium Copper Alloys: Electrical Industry: Resistance Welding Electrodes, Circuit Breaker Switches, Stud Bases for Power Transmitters, Rectifiers, Diodes, Switches, Commutators Consumer: Rod Extensions, Pencil-type, Light Soldering Guns, Tips Industrial: Connectors, Solderless Wrapped, Welding Wheels, Resistance Welding Tips Available Sizes: Custom Diameter & Sizes, Random Mill lengths Available Products (forms): Round bars, Flat bars, Square bars, Rectangular bars, Hexagon bars, Plates Custom shapes are available upon request. Chemical Composition: Zr: 0.15-0.20% Cu: Balance Note: Copper plus additions equal 99.90% minimum.
