TGS ASTM CC18700 Copper Rod With 99.9% Cu Purity
Product Spotlights
Copper rod is a solid, long metal product with a circular cross-section, manufactured through continuous casting, extrusion, or drawing processes. It exhibits outstanding electrical and thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance, high ductility, and excellent machinability, making it the preferred raw material for electrical components, plumbing fittings, and mechanical parts. Common international standards include ASTM B49 (USA for copper rod for electrical purposes), EN 12163 (Europe for general copper rod), JIS H3260 (Japan for copper and copper alloy rods), and BS 2874 (UK). Typical grades include C11000 (electrolytic tough pitch copper), C12200 (phosphorus-deoxidized copper), Cu-ETP (EN equivalent to C11000), and C1100 (JIS equivalent). To compare copper rod standards across regions, search “copper rod ASTM B49 vs EN 12163 comparison”; for electrical conductivity data, use “C11000 copper rod conductivity IACS chart”; to check standard diameter and tolerance ranges, search “copper rod common diameter chart ASTM”; for alloy selection guidance, use “C11000 vs C12200 copper rod application guide”.
China’s domestic standards for copper rods mainly follow GB/T 4423 (copper and copper alloy cold-drawn rods) and GB/T 21652 (copper and copper alloy rods for electrical purposes). Common Chinese grades include T2 (pure copper, equivalent to C11000), TP2 (phosphorus-deoxidized copper, equivalent to C12200), TU1 (oxygen-free copper), and H62 (brass, 62% copper). Copper rods are available in diameters ranging from 3mm to 120mm, supplied in straight lengths of 1m to 6m or in coiled form for smaller diameters. To cross-reference Chinese grades with international equivalents, search “T2 copper rod equivalent ASTM”; for Chinese copper rod dimension tables, use “GB/T 4423 copper rod size list”; to verify mechanical property requirements, search “Chinese copper rod tensile strength hardness chart”; for a sample Chinese mill test certificate, use “China copper rod MTC example”.
Copper rods are widely used in the electrical and electronics industries (bus bars, grounding rods, switchgear components, transformer terminals, and electrode holders), plumbing and HVAC systems (valve stems, faucet cores, and fitting connectors), mechanical manufacturing (gear shafts, pump components, and welding torch tips), and decorative applications (handrails, door handles, and marine hardware). For electrical applications, C11000 (T2) is preferred due to its minimum 101% IACS conductivity; for applications requiring welding or brazing in reducing atmospheres, C12200 (TP2) offers superior resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. To select copper rod for electrical bus bar applications, search “copper rod for bus bar specification ASTM B49”; for plumbing valve stem requirements, use “C12200 copper rod for valve manufacturing”; to review mechanical component standards, search “copper rod for pump shaft application EN 12163”; for marine and decorative application examples, use “copper rod for handrail and marine hardware fabrication”.
When sourcing copper rods internationally, critical parameters include grade, temper designation (soft, half-hard, hard, or extra-hard), diameter tolerance, straightness, length, surface finish (bright, polished, or as-extruded), and edge chamfer (for ease of handling). Also confirm whether the rod is suitable for machining (free-cutting grades may contain lead or tellurium for improved chip breakage) or for cold heading and forming applications. For dimensional tolerance standards, search “copper rod diameter tolerance ASTM B49”; to compare temper conditions for machining applications, use “half-hard vs hard copper rod machinability”; for current international pricing trends, search “copper rod price per ton 2025”; to locate certified global suppliers, use “copper rod manufacturers Europe directory”.
