Product
C10200 Oxygen Free (OF) Copper is produced by the direct conversion of selected refined cathodes and castings under carefully controlled conditions to prevent contamination of the pure oxygen-free metal during processing. The method of producing OFHC copper ensures extra high grade of metal with a copper content of 99.99%. With so small a content of extraneous elements, the inherent properties of elemental copper are brought forth to a high degree.
Product Introduction
While OF is considered oxygen-free, its conductivity rating is no better than the more common ETP or C11000 grade copper. It has a 0.001% oxygen content, 99.95% purity and minimum 100% IACS conductivity. For the purposes of purity percentage, silver (Ag) content is counted as copper (Cu).C10200 TYPICAL USES
Some of the typical areas that C10200 is used in, is as follows: Microwave Tubes, Copper to Glass Seals in Electronic Appliances, Wave Guides, Bus Conductors, Busbars, Klystrons, Coaxial Cables, Electrical Conductors, Lead In Wire, Transistor Component, Billet Mold Tube, Coaxial Tube, Extrusion Cans for Powder Metallurgy, Vacuum Seals, Tubing, LP Gas Service, Tubing, Medical Gas- Oxygen
