FAQs

Q1: What does 101% IACS conductivity mean?

IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard) defines 100% as the conductivity of pure annealed copper. 101% IACS indicates conductivity 1% higher than the standard reference, achievable only through extreme purity and optimized processing.

Q2: Why is oxygen content below 5 ppm critical?

In hydrogen-rich or high-temperature environments, copper with higher oxygen can undergo hydrogen embrittlement, causing internal cracks. Oxygen ≤5 ppm eliminates this risk.

Q3: Can this product bend 120° without cracking?

Yes. The material undergoes a specialized annealing process that imparts excellent ductility, allowing a 120° bend under standard practices without surface cracking.

Q4: What does "(Small)" indicate?

"(Small)" designates this as the standard 18 mm diameter variant within our smaller-diameter precision conductor series. Custom smaller diameters are available upon request.

Q5: Do you offer custom sizes or shapes?

Yes. We can customize diameter, cross-sectional shape, purity, temper, and length. See the Customization Capabilities section for details.
