145 Tellurium Copper
CDA 145 Tellurium Copper is used for forgings, screw machine parts or any parts requiring high conductivity, extensive machining, and or corrosion resistance. The addition of Tellurium results in short, clean chips and allows for higher cutting speeds than that of pure copper, with much less wear on tool life. Typical uses include electrical connectors, motor or switch parts, plumbing fittings, welding torch tips, and transistor bases. Other names for this product are 145 Half Hard Tellurium. It is ASTM B301, UNS-C14500.
