Known for its combination of exceptional durability, thermal stability, and good electrical conductivity, W240 is ideal for precision welding electrodes, heat transfer systems, industrial dies, and contact assemblies in aerospace, automotive, and electrical manufacturing.
We supply W240 in bars, rods, plates, forged blocks, and CNC-finished components, customized to meet demanding application needs.
What is W240 Copper Alloy?
W240 is a premium CuNiSi (Copper-Nickel-Silicon) alloy engineered to offer superior wear resistance, good thermal conductivity, and moderate electrical conductivity. Its high hardness and stability under elevated temperatures make it ideal for projection welding, die inserts, and electrical contacts, where traditional copper alloys might deform or wear out too quickly.
