Copper Rod

Characteristics

• Good electrical and thermal conductivity: This property of copper makes copper round rods widely used in the electrical and electronic fields and in places where heat conduction is required.
• Corrosion resistance: Under certain circumstances, copper has good corrosion resistance and can remain stable under a variety of conditions.
• Good machinability: parts of various shapes and sizes can be made by turning, milling, drilling and other processing methods.
• Moderate strength: Copper metal rods have certain strength and can withstand certain loads.

Production process

There are mainly methods such as casting and extrusion. Casting copper rods involves injecting molten copper into a mold to cool and form; extruding copper rods uses an extruder to squeeze the copper billet into a rod shape.

Application fields

• Electrical field: used to make conductors of wires and cables, contacts of switches and sockets, etc.
• Machinery manufacturing: It can be used as shaft parts, connectors, etc. in various mechanical equipment.
• Plumbing field: Can be used in some water pipe fittings.
• Decorative field: can be used to make decorations, sculptures, etc.

Things to note when choosing

• Material purity: Choose copper metal rods with appropriate purity according to different application requirements. High-purity copper metal rods have better conductivity and corrosion resistance.
• Diameter and length: Select the appropriate diameter and length specifications according to actual use requirements.
• Surface quality: Check whether the surface of the copper rod is smooth, without cracks, scratches and other defects.
• Manufacturer: Choose a manufacturer with good reputation and reliable quality to ensure product quality and after-sales service.
