Copper C11300 bars and rods are free-machining copper alloys that possess superior machinability as well as good mechanical strength. With small tellurium or other alloying additions, C11300 has relatively high electrical conductivity with greatly enhanced machinability compared to that of pure copper. It is a very good material for use on automatic screw machines and precision parts that need close tolerances. Due to their superior corrosion resistance and fabrictility, these bars find extensive applications across electrical, plumbing, and electronic industries. With their highly polished finish and dimensional stability, they are ideal for decorative and functional applications both.
C11300 copper is made up of 99.5% copper and trace amounts of tellurium (approximately 0.4–0.7%) to provide better machinability. It retains an electrical conductivity of around 90% IACS, and has a tensile strength of 260–380 MPa. It provides good resistance to wear, galling, and corrosion in environments other than strong ammonia bases. The alloy is cold workable and can be moderately hot worked. It is non-magnetic, solderable, and may be brazed or welded by proper methods. Increased machinability provides higher cutting speeds, improved chip formation, and increased tool life.

Copper C11300 Bars and Rods naturally resist corrosion due to their high purity and deoxidized composition. However, in harsh or aggressive environments, additional protective coatings may be applied for enhanced durability.
Yes, Copper C11300 Bars and Rods are fully recyclable. Copper maintains its properties after recycling, making it an eco-friendly material for reuse in various industrial applications.
Copper C11300 Bars and Rods can be used for potable water applications due to their corrosion resistance and non-toxic properties. However, local regulations should be checked for specific usage requirements.
The copper C11300 rods and bars have applications in precision-machined electrical parts, plumbing fixtures, terminals, connectors, contact pins, and switch components. Due to their high machinability, they are suitable for application in high-speed automatic screw machines and CNC lathes. They are widely used in telecommunications, automotive electrical components, and electronics hardware. C11300 also finds application in mechanical assemblies where both electrical conductivity and dimensional precision are critical. The balance of conductivity, machinability, and corrosion resistance of the alloy makes it an attractive material for functional parts that need to be produced quickly and give consistent electrical performance.
