3D Printing CuNi2SiCr
UNS C18000
Description
CuNi2SiCr is a thermally curable low-alloyed copper material with high stiffness, also at elevated temperatures. It has good thermal and electrical conductivity. Due to the addition of nickel and silicon, this alloy has a high corrosion resistance, especially against stress-corrosion cracking. Processes of our 3D printing CuNi2SiCr are run with Argon as atomization gas in a dust-free production environment to guarantee maximum product quality. It is typically used in electromechanical components, brackets and fixing elements facing high stresses.
