Developing engineered copper materials to provide optimum physical and mechanical properties is a complex process that requires a continuing dialogue between our customers, our metallurgists, and our technical staff. We review your complete specification to produce the best material that meets your requirements and any applicable ASTM or other standards. This up-front focus often results in some customization to enhance specific properties, increase production rates, reduce costs, and lower downtime. PMX understands copper alloy metallurgy and knows that sometimes even minimum processing changes can result in maximum benefits.

Our copper materials offer product developers unique combinations of properties that many other commercial metals cannot match. With a heavy emphasis on research and development, we are unmatched in our ability to develop standard and customized materials that utilize the inherent properties of copper, brass, and bronze alloys. For more technical information, review our High Precision Copper Alloy Guide. We can optimize our materials for these specific properties:

• High electrical and thermal conductivity
• Superior corrosion resistance
• Outstanding machinability
• Increased strength
• Resistance to fatigue and wear
• Ease of joining and plating
• Colors and surface finishes
• Non-magnetic
• Non-sparking
