FAQ

What does "T1" mean in copper grading?
A: "T1" is the Chinese standard designation (GB/T 5231) for the highest purity grade of copper, with a minimum copper content of 99.97% and extremely low oxygen and impurity levels. It is equivalent to international oxygen-free copper grades like C10100/OFE and C10200/OF.

 

What is the electrical conductivity of T1 copper?
A: T1 copper offers 101% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard) minimum conductivity. This is the highest conductivity available in any commercial copper grade, exceeding even pure silver in conductivity-to-cost ratio.

 

Is T1 copper resistant to hydrogen embrittlement?
A: Yes. Because T1 copper contains virtually no oxygen (<30 ppm), it is highly resistant to hydrogen embrittlement. This makes it safe for welding, brazing, and soldering in reducing atmospheres where standard T2 copper would crack.

 

Can T1 copper be used in vacuum applications?
A: Yes, absolutely. T1 copper is ideal for high-vacuum and ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) applications due to its extremely low outgassing rates and absence of volatile impurities. It is widely used in vacuum chambers, electron beam equipment, and particle accelerators.

 

Packaging & Delivery

To ensure your T1 copper bars arrive in pristine condition befitting their ultra-high purity, we employ a professional packaging process that far exceeds industry standards. Each copper bar undergoes a meticulous surface quality inspection before packaging. For precision-ground and polished copper bars, we apply a protective oil (optional) and individually wrap each one with acid-free tissue paper or a rust-preventive VCI (vapor phase corrosion inhibitor) film to prevent surface degradation. The copper bars are then separated by foam or wooden pads to prevent direct metal-to-metal contact and secured with abrasion-free strapping, finally wrapped in multiple layers of moisture-proof film. For international shipping, we use custom-made plywood crates, reinforced internally and containing desiccant packets to control humidity.
