T2Y2 Red Copper Contact for Fuse material properties

1.The copper of Fuse Terminal Contact has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and processing properties, and Fuse Terminal can be welded and brazed. Contains less impurities that reduce electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, and trace oxygen has little effect on electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and processing properties.

2.The copper terminal of EV Automotive Fuse Terminals High purity, conductivity not less than 98%.

3.The Copper of Fuse Terminal Contact is No "hydrogen disease" or very little "hydrogen disease"; good processing performance and welding, corrosion resistance and cold resistance.

4.Fuse Link Contact Copper material has good welding performance and cold bending performance, generally no "hydrogen disease" tendency, can be processed and used in a reducing atmosphere.

5.The addition of a small amount of silver to copper can significantly increase the softening temperature (recrystallization temperature) and creep strength, with little reduction in copper electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and plasticity. The aging hardening effect of silver copper is not significant, and cold work hardening is generally used to improve the strength. The copper terminal of Fuse End Blade Ferrules has good wear resistance, electrical contact and corrosion resistance.

Characteristics of new energy Fuse Copper Contact and Outer Cap brazing

Brazing Fuse Copper Contact and Brass Outer Cap refers to a welding method in which the filler metal and the weldment below the melting point of the weldment are heated to the melting temperature of the filler metal at the same time, and then the liquid filler metal is used to fill the gap of the Fuse Copper Terminal and Brass Cap to connect the metals. During Fuse Contact Cap brazing, the oxide film and oil stains on the contact surface of the base metal should be removed first, so that the capillary can play a role after the brazing filler metal is melted and increase the wettability and capillary fluidity of the brazing filler metal. According to the different melting points of the solder, brazing is divided into brazing and soldering.


Brazing process of the Fuse Copper Contact and Brass Fuse Cap: The workpieces Fuse Copper Contact Cap that have been cleaned on the surface are assembled together in a lap joint pattern, and the solder is placed near or between the Fuse Contact Copper and Cap Brass joint gaps. When the workpiece and the solder are heated to a temperature slightly higher than the melting point of the solder, the solder melts (the workpiece is not melted), and is sucked in by capillary action and fills the gap between the solid workpieces Fuse Link Contact and Inner End Cap. The liquid solder and the workpiece metal diffuse and dissolve with each other. A brazed joint is formed after condensation.


1.The surface of the joint Copper Cap and Fuse Terminal is smooth, the air tightness is good, the shape and size are stable, the structure and properties of the weldment do not change much, and the same or different metals and some non-metals can be connected. During brazing Fuse Contact and Outer End Cap, the whole workpiece can also be heated, and many welds can be welded at one time, which improves the productivity. However, the strength of brazing joints is low, and lap joints are mostly used, and the joint strength is improved by increasing the lap length; in addition, the preparation work before brazing Copper Contact and End Caps is relatively high.


2.In order to make the brazing part Fuse Copper Contact and Copper Cap firmly connected and enhance the adhesion of the brazing filler metal, flux should be used during brazing to remove oxides on the surface of the brazing filler metal and the weldment.


3.Brazing Copper End Caps and Contact uses an alloy with a lower melting point than the base metal as the brazing filler metal. When heated, the brazing filler metal is melted and filled and kept in the joint gap by wetting and capillary action, while the base metal is in a solid state, relying on liquid brazing filler metal and solid mother metal. The mutual diffusion between the materials forms a brazed joint. Brazing Fuse Copper Contact and Cap Copper has little effect on the physical and chemical properties of the base metal, less welding stress and deformation, and can weld dissimilar metals with large differences in performance, and can complete multiple welds at the same time.

Analysis of the Reasons for Poor Brazing Fuse Contact Cap Quality

1. Poor filling, some gaps are not filled,reasons as below:

(1) The joint of the Copper Cap and Contact design is unreasonable, the assembly gap is too large or too small, and the parts are skewed during assembly.

(2) The flux is not suitable, such as poor activity, too large difference between the melting temperature of the flux and the solder, and poor ability of the flux to fill the gap; or the gas purity is low during gas shielded brazing.

(3) Improper selection of solder Copper End Caps and Fuse Contact, such as poor wetting of solder and insufficient amount of solder.

⑷ Improper placement of solder Cap Copper and Contact.

⑸The preparation work of the Custom Copper Caps and Fuse Contact before brazing is not good, such as dirty cleaning.

⑹ The brazing temperature of the Copper End Cap and Fuse Contact is too low or the distribution is uneven.


2. Brazing seam pores,reasons as below:

(1) Improper selection of joint gap for End Cap Copper and Fuse Terminal.

(2) The parts of Copper Metal End Cap and Fuse Contact are not cleaned before brazing.

(3) The flux removal effect or the protective gas removal effect is weak.

⑷ During brazing of Copper End Cap Fitting, the solder releases gas or the solder is overheated.


3. Brazing seam slag inclusion,reasons as below:

⑴The amount of flux used is too much or too little.

(2) Improper selection of joint Copper Outer Cap clearance.

(3) Solder fills the joints from both sides of the joint Copper Slip Cap.

⑷ The melting temperature of the solder Copper Slip Cap Fitting and the flux does not match.

⑸ The proportion of flux is too large.

⑹ Uneven heating.


4. Brazing seam cracking,reasons as below:

(1) Due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of dissimilar base metals Copper Outer Cap, the internal stress formed during the cooling process is too large.

(2) The brazing heating of the same material Copper End Plate is uneven, resulting in inconsistent shrinkage during the cooling process.

(3) When the solder solidifies, the parts Copper End Caps Round move mutually.

⑷ The crystallization temperature interval of the solder is too large.

⑸The brazing seam is too brittle.


5. Solder loss,reasons as below:

(1) The brazing of Copper End Cap Solder Fittings temperature is too high or the holding time is too long.

(2) Improper placement of the brazing material Welding Fuse Copper Pipe End Cap so that it does not play a capillary role.

(3) The local gap of Copper Cap High Pressure OEM is too large.


6. The base metal is eroded,reasons as below:

(1) The brazing temperature of Copper Outer End Cap is too high and the holding time is too long.

(2) The effect between the base metal Copper Cap for BS(British Standard) Type Fuse and the solder is too severe.

(3) The amount of solder is too large.
