Benefits of Combining Metals to Achieve the Alloy You Need (Copper Zirconium and Copper Chromium Zirconium)

Cadi Company Inc. is a trusted name in the copper and copper alloy industry. It is known that copper in its pure form has vulnerabilities, such as low melting points, lack of strength, or over-malleability. When two or more metals or elements are combined, they form an alloy – this step metallurgy speaking produced countless possibilities. The task of finding the right copper alloy can be more of a challenge than some might initially imagine. As a matter of fact, if you are not working with the right company in this regard, it can be somewhat of a struggle to find the parts and components that you need to keep manufacturing running on schedule and budget. While there are companies that offer this type of product, one company has consistently outpaced by providing the best products.

Understood that copper by itself is resistant to corrosion, extremely malleable, ductile, and soft. By adding Zirconium (CuZr C15000) you achieve improved resistance to softening and deformation at high temperatures. Being an RWMA Class 1 electrode material C15000 is copper (99.8%) and zirconium (balance) it minimizes sticking when resistance spot welding galvanized or coated materials.  Taking it one step further, another alloy is C18150 taking copper, adding zirconium and chromium this alloy has improved creep resistance at high operating temperatures and reduces sticking of electrodes to the work during spot welding of galvanized and coated materials. It’s an RWMA class 2 material which is stronger than class 1. It is recommended for spot and seam welding. This alloy is used extensively for cap-style resistance welding electrodes due to providing less sticking and resistance. With so much to offer it is clear to see why more professionals in industry and manufacturing are turning to premium grade copper zirconium and copper chromium zirconium alloys and other similar quality metal copper alloys.
