Product Overview
Chromium Copper C18200 studs are high-conductivity copper alloy fasteners manufactured from UNS C18200 bar stock, conforming to ASTM B743 and RWMA Class 2 standards. This alloy contains approximately 0.6-1.2% chromium, which is precipitation-hardened to deliver a unique combination of high electrical and thermal conductivity with enhanced mechanical strength and wear resistance.
Chromium Copper C18200 studs are widely specified for resistance welding equipment, electrical contacts, and high-temperature bolted assemblies where both conductivity and strength are critical. Their excellent resistance to softening at elevated temperatures makes them ideal for demanding industrial applications.
