FAQ
Q: What is the difference between C12200 and other copper grades like C11000?
A: C12200 is phosphorus-deoxidized copper (DHP) containing 0.015-0.040% phosphorus. C11000 (ETP copper) contains oxygen (0.02-0.04%). Key differences:
C12200 has better weldability and brazeability – phosphorus prevents hydrogen embrittlement
C11000 has higher conductivity (~101% IACS vs 85-90% IACS for C12200)
C12200 has better dezincification resistance
For heat exchangers and condensers, C12200 is the preferred choice.
Q: What does DHP stand for?
A: DHP stands for "Deoxidized High Phosphorus." It indicates that the copper has been deoxidized with a higher level of phosphorus residue (0.015-0.040%), which improves weldability, brazing performance, and corrosion resistance compared to non-deoxidized or low-phosphorus copper.
Q: What is the difference between H55, H80, and O61 tempers?
A:
O61 (Annealed) – Softest, most formable, for U-bending and tube expansion
H55 (Light Drawn) – Moderate strength, some formability
H80 (Hard Drawn) – Highest strength, minimal formability, best erosion resistance
Always select O61 temper for bending or expanding operations.
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for C12200 tubes?
A: For continuous service, 200-250°C (400-480°F) is recommended. The melting point is 1083°C (1981°F), but oxidation accelerates above 250°C. Annealing occurs between 250-650°C, which will soften hard tempers.
Q: What testing methods are applied to C12200 tubes?
A: Standard testing includes:
Eddy Current Testing (ET) – Per ASTM E243
Hydrostatic Testing – 7000 psi fiber stress minimum
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) as specified
Third-party inspection (SGS, BV, etc.) is available upon request.
Q: Is C12200 suitable for natural gas and LP gas distribution?
A: Yes. ASTM B837 specifically covers Seamless Copper Tube for Natural Gas and Liquified Petroleum (LP) Gas Fuel Distribution Systems. C12200 is approved for fuel gas systems in many jurisdictions.
Q: Can C12200 be welded? What methods work?
A: Yes. Suitability ratings:
Brazing – Excellent (most common for tube-to-tubesheet joints)
Soldering – Excellent
Gas Shielded Arc Welding – Good
Oxy Acetylene Welding – Good
Coated Metal Arc Welding – Not Recommended
Q: What shapes are available for C12200 tubes?
A: Available shapes include:
Round (most common for heat exchangers)
Square
Rectangular
Q: What is the difference between ASTM B111 and ASTM B395?
A:
ASTM B111 – Covers straight seamless condenser tubes and ferrule stock
ASTM B395 – Specifically covers U-bend seamless copper and copper alloy heat exchanger and condenser tubes
If you need U-bent tubes, specify ASTM B395.
Q: What is the electrical conductivity of C12200?
A: Electrical conductivity ranges from 70-90% IACS at 68°F. This is lower than pure copper (101% IACS) due to the phosphorus content, but still sufficient for most electrical applications where corrosion resistance is also required.
Q: What is the modulus of elasticity for C12200?
A: The modulus of elasticity (tension) is 17 × 10⁶ psi (115 GPa) . This is important for calculating tube deflection and stress in heat exchanger designs.
