Tuncop 80W/20Cu Tungsten Copper

Tuncop® 80W/20Cu is known as tungsten copper. It is a copper alloy produced by powder metallurgy and containing 75% tungsten. Tungsten has a very high resistance to arcing during welding. The high electrical conductivity of copper allows it to be used as an electrode.

Tuncop® 80W/20Cu is a material known for its excellent machinability, high toughness and high temperature resistance. This material is used in applications operating under high thermal and mechanical stress. It is generally used in many industrial areas such as aerospace, defense industry, medical devices, electromechanical devices. Since Tuncop® 80W/20Cu is resistant to oxidation even when used at high temperatures, it is often preferred in the manufacture of devices operating at high temperatures. In addition, due to its high thermal conductivity, it is also used in applications where heat dissipation is required. With its high quality and durable features, Tuncop® 80W/20Cu plays an important role in the production of high-performance products in industrial applications.

Tuncop® 80W/20Cu material can be used as electrodes for butt and spot welding of stainless steels. For example, it is used in pot handle welding, as a high wear resistant electrode in plunge erosion process, spot welding of resistance wires and contact welding of electric motors.
