Performance Materials

Copper-Nickel-Silicon Alloys

Cu-Ni-Si · high conductivity + strength · beryllium-free

Hardenable copper-nickel-silicon alloys pair high thermal and electrical conductivity with high mechanical and friction resistance. Stable at elevated temperature with low stress relaxation, the NS30 grade exceeds copper-beryllium on thermal performance, ideal for hot friction parts, mould tooling and resistance welding.
