busbu METALS Rod & Wire Considered the best machining of the high conductivity alloys, this Copper-Tellurium alloy acquires strength from “alloying” Tellurium. As with all metals, when reducing the amount of Copper, conductivity dramatically decreases yet strength increases. This product is used where high-insertion loads or high cycles are required, such as socket connectors for high-voltage power sources, welding tips, plumbing fittings, soldering Coppers, transistor bases, furnace brazing, and motor parts. BUSBY METALS BENEFITS Excellent conductivity Excellent formability Excellent ductility Improved strength The Trusted Name in Copper Alloys
