What is a C11000 copper pipe?
C11000 copper, also known as electrolytic tough copper (ETP copper), is widely used in electrical and industrial fields due to its excellent electrical conductivity, good ductility, and corrosion resistance. C11000 copper is renowned for its high purity (copper content of at least 99.9%), making it particularly suitable for industries requiring extremely low electrical loss and stable performance. GNEE offers a variety of high-quality C11000 copper products, including plates, tubes, bars, angle steel, channel steel, profiles, and fittings, to meet the diverse needs of various industries.
Key Features of C11000 Copper
High Electrical Conductivity: C11000 Copper has an electrical conductivity of approximately 101% IACS, making it ideal for electrical applications.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance: C11000 resists corrosion in a variety of environments, increasing its lifespan.
Superior Formability and Malleability: Easy to shape, machine, and weld, allowing versatile use in industrial applications.
High Thermal Conductivity: Ensures efficient heat dissipation, critical for applications like heat exchangers and electrical contacts.
