Copper Bus Bars are known for their electrical conductivity and thermal performance, making them perfect for high-stress environments where efficiency really matters.
We stock copper alloy C110, a general-purpose copper designated in ASTM Standard B152.
Engineers apply a finish to copper bus bars to improve performance and durability. Applying a finish can prevent copper from turning into patina, a thin green layer on the surface.
We offer finishes, both for functional as well as aesthetic purposes.
Adding permanent marking to your bus bars as means of identification can go a long way in proper tracking, as well as preventing theft and other fraudulent activity. All of these methods are compliant with MIL-STD-130.
If you require graphics for identification, labeling, branding, or anything else, we can add them on your custom bus bars within 2-3 days.
While copper is favored for bus bars due to its superior electrical conductivity, aluminum can be used if lighter weight and lower cost are priorities.
Among our in-stock material, 6061-T6 Aluminum is the most conductive option. However, designing with the proper bend radius is critical to avoid cracking. In contrast, 5052 Aluminum is not as conductive but better for bending. Other options like 7075-T6, 2024-T3, and Alca 5 lack good conductivity and bending capabilities.
Aluminum bus bars face oxidation risks, which reduces conductivity and increases electrical resistance at connection points. Using appropriate finishes or protective coatings can help mitigate these risks and maintain reliability.
