Introduction and Applications of Tellurium Copper:

Tantalum Copper: The tantalum copper specified in GB/T5233-2001 standard is QTe0.5, equivalent to the US copper alloy C14500. Its composition (%) is: 0.40~0.7Te, 0.004~0.012P, 99.90 Cu (including Te+Su). The solubility of tantalum in copper is no more than 0.01% at 800°C, and tantalum has little effect on copper's electrical and thermal conductivity. Tantalum exists in copper as a dispersed, independent phase Cu2Te, making chips easy to break and improving copper's machinability. To reduce the brittleness of tantalum copper, the Te content should not exceed 0.7% and it should be used in quenched and tempered conditions. Do not perform tempering, as tempering (around 600°C) causes Cu2Te to precipitate along grain boundaries, making the material brittle. Tantalum worsens copper's weldability.

After understanding Tellurium Copper, let's take a look at Tellurium Copper Rods. Tellurium Copper Rods are a type of important metal material, manufactured by extruding or drawing Tellurium Brass rods. They play a crucial role in many aspects. For example, they are used as materials for manufacturing parts of electronic appliances, instruments, automatic control systems, communication systems, aerospace, and other products. They offer high conductivity, excellent machinability, and corrosion resistance, and are environmentally friendly with lead and cadmium-free, available in round, square, hexagonal, and other shapes.

Applications for Tellurium Copper Rods:

Tungsten copper rod applications: Used for parts with high conductivity, machinability, and corrosion resistance, such as electrical connectors, automotive parts, switch components, pipe fittings, brazing tips, torch tips, transistor bases, and furnace assembly components.
