Product Overview

What are Copper C10100 (OFE) Studs?

Copper C10100 (OFE) studs are high-purity, oxygen-free electronic copper fasteners manufactured from UNS C10100 bar or rod, conforming to ASTM B187 and ASTM F68. With a minimum copper content of 99.99% and extremely low oxygen (=0.0005%), these studs offer exceptional electrical and thermal conductivity, making them the preferred choice for critical electrical, vacuum, and cryogenic applications.

OFE copper studs are non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, and free from hydrogen embrittlement, ensuring reliable performance in high-vacuum, UHV, and high-purity process environments. They are widely specified for semiconductor fabrication, particle accelerators, and power transmission assemblies where maximum conductivity and purity are essential.

Material Chemistry

Copper C10100 (OFE) Chemical Composition

Copper C10100 (OFE) Studs are produced from either tin-stabilized Naval Brass C46400 or aluminium-nickel-iron Aluminium Bronze C63000, with elemental limits per ASTM and MIL-B-24059. Tin (0.5–1%) in Naval Brass prevents dezincification in seawater; aluminium and nickel additions in Al Bronze C63000 provide non-sparking ATEX Zone 1 compliance.

Why Copper C10100 (OFE) Alloy Composition Matters for Studs

99.99% Cu — Maximum Conductivity
OFE copper’s ultra-high purity ensures electrical conductivity =101% IACS, making these studs ideal for busbars, grounding, and high-current connections in sensitive equipment.
Oxygen-Free — No Hydrogen Embrittlement
The extremely low oxygen content prevents embrittlement during brazing or vacuum service, ensuring mechanical integrity and long-term reliability in UHV and cryogenic assemblies.
Trace Silver — Enhanced Softness
Trace silver content maintains ductility and softness, allowing easy forming and installation without risk of cracking or work hardening.

Contact our technical team directly for project-specific guidance on Copper C10100 (OFE) studs selection and pricing.
Copper C10100 (OFE) studs are available to DIN 976 (metric threaded rods and studs), ASME B18.31.2 (inch continuous thread), and ASTM F68 (OFE copper fasteners). Custom thread forms (UNC, UNF, BSW, BSP) and lengths are available on request, with full traceability and certification.
For optimal conductivity, ensure clean, oxide-free mating surfaces and full thread engagement. Use a conductive joint compound if required. Avoid over-tightening, which can deform soft copper threads and reduce contact area. Torque values should be kept low and verified for each application.
Yes – OFE copper’s ultra-low oxygen content prevents embrittlement and outgassing, making these studs ideal for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and cryogenic assemblies. They retain ductility and conductivity at temperatures down to 4K, and are widely used in particle accelerators and superconducting magnets.
No formal MOQ for standard metric and inch sizes held ex-stock – we supply from single pieces for R&D and maintenance. Custom sizes or special thread forms may require a 5 kg minimum. Quantity price breaks are available at 25 pcs, 100 pcs, and 500 pcs.
