Many applications in electrical engineering, electronics and industrial manufacturing require materials that exceed the performance limits of pure copper – particularly where high mechanical strength and excellent electrical conductivity must be combined. Since pure copper provides only moderate strength, it is often unsuitable for components subjected to high mechanical or thermal loads. WECOBA® Z is an age-hardened, low-alloy copper material engineered specifically for applications with elevated mechanical and thermal stresses, while maintaining electrical conductivity levels close to pure copper.
