Copper or Iron Tungsten Contact Rivets Application:

Tungsten point contact is widely used in relays,Electric Horn,Circuit Breaker,AC Contactor,New Energy PV Relay,etc.The term Relay generally refers to a device that provides an electrical connection between two or more points in response to the application of a control signal. The most common and widely used type of electrical relay is the electromechanical relay or EMR.


The relay Tungsten Steel Contact is electrically conductive pieces of metal which touch together completing a circuit and allow the circuit current to flow, just like a switch. When Copper Tungsten Contacts are open the resistance between the contacts is very high in the Mega-Ohms, producing an open circuit condition and no circuit current flows. When the contacts are closed Tungsten Copper Electrical Contact resistance should be zero, a short circuit, but this is not always the case. All relay contacts have a certain amount of "contact resistance" when they are closed and this is called the "On-Resistance", similar to FET's. With a new relay and contacts this ON-resistance will be very small, generally less than 0.2Ω's because the tips are new and clean.

Characteristics required by the Tungsten Contact during using:

1. The contact resistance is low and stable;

2. Good welding resistance and complete opening and closing;

3. Good conductivity;

4. The wear resistance is good, and the Tungsten contact surface can’t be changed.


1. Tungsten Contact Rivets Processing Requirements

With the continuous development of the automobile manufacturing industry, the requirements for tungsten contact materials are rapidly increasing. The user's requirements for tungsten contact materials are: 

(1)Rod without cracks, scratches, smooth surface; 

(2)Fine and uniform cross-section grains, short fibers; 

(3)Good straightness, concentricity and roundness; 

(4)High hardness, good impact toughness; 

(5)Vapor pressure Low evaporation rate, small thermal expansion coefficient; 

(6)Good and stable arc resistance. 


Physical and mechanical properties of Motorcycle Horn Tungsten Rivet materials In order to meet user requirements, technicians have done a lot of work. For the splitting, brittle fracture, and uneven grain size of the cross-section during the production process of the Solid Tungsten Contact Rivets material, the rod diameter is the same. The reasons why the O degree and flatness can’t meet the requirements are comprehensively analyzed, and a series of measures are taken pertinently.

2. Electrical Tungsten Contact Rivets Material Characteristics

Tungsten is used as electrical contact or contact material, which is resistant to arc ablation; good fusion resistance; metal surface evaporation caused by electrothermal action, less transfer and consumption; strong current interrupting ability; and good wear resistance, dynamic hit performance. Compared with other metal or alloy materials, the price is low, so tungsten contacts and tungsten wafers are widely used in various fields of industry, agriculture, technology and defense.

Solid Tungsten Contact Rivets is characterized by its advantageous properties of high melting and boiling points, sufficient electrical and thermal conductivity and high hardness and density .Industrial Tungsten Brazed Contacts Rivets are mainly used in the form of brazed contact tips for switching duties that require a rapid switching sequence such as Car Horn Tungsten Contact Rivets for cars and trucks.
