Chill Casting with Copper
Application
Copper components are ideal for applications where electrical currents flow. For example, the material is very interesting for electrical engineering for current- carrying parts or switches. The strength and conductivity, and not to mention the costs, can be varied by using different alloys.
Strengths:
- Corrosion resistance above and underwater
- High electrical conductivity with very low resistance
