MATERIAL

Brass

Common Alloys

C26000C26800C27200C28000

Finishing

Tin plating (solderability & corrosion protection)Nickel plating (wear & tarnish resistance)Silver plating (high-conductivity contacts)
Brass is a copper-zinc alloy prized for its corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, machinability and attractive gold-like appearance.
MATERIAL

Copper

Common Alloys

C11000C10100C10200C12200

Finishing

Tin plating (solderability & cost-effective protection)Nickel plating (wear & corrosion resistance)Silver plating (maximum conductivity for busbars)
