Sometimes the best possible contact material specification demands a collection of properties unavailable in a single material. For example, an application may require the low contact resistance of fine silver but the ability to resist weld to a substrate that demands a high resistance backing. Such a challenge can be resolved by cladding a contact material system that may include two or more materials, each offering a different critical property.
Material conductivity, mechanical strength, resistivity, and cost can all be engineered into the material system and then formed into a tape, often with a knurl or welding rail formed into a backing to facilitate resistance welding.
Copper, Copper Alloy, Cold Rolled Steel (CRS) and Stainless Steel, Monel, Nickel, and Aluminum
Tape welding can run on our customer's equipment or utilize Checon's state-of-the-art in-press welding capability to deliver a complete contact assembly.
