Copper & Copper Alloys for Electrical and Industrial Applications

Copper and copper alloys are widely used in electrical and industrial applications thanks to their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, combined with their mechanical properties.

From high-conductivity pure copper to copper alloys, the wide range of available grades makes it possible to adapt material properties to the specific requirements of each application, including conductivity, mechanical strength, wear resistance and temperature resistance.

STPM supplies various grades including Cu-ETP, Cu-OF, Cu-OFE and CuCr1Zr, as well as different families of bronzes and brasses, available as bars, plates, strips, wires and other semi-finished products.
