CuCrZr

CuCrZr differs from pure copper primarily due to its improved mechanical properties while maintaining a high elongation capability. In terms of conductivity, this is only accompanied by a very slight reduction. After pure copper, this material has the second highest electrical and thermal conductivity of the copper-based materials, which provides an excellent compromise between resistance to mechanical stress and electrical or thermal efficiency. Durability is ensured by the high degree of corrosion resistance against a variety of media. The metallic copper colour of the material also gives CuCrZr components an aesthetic appearance for decorative purposes.
