First, the material introduction
The commonly used copper violet tube in the electric heating pipe mainly uses C12200, C12000 two kinds of materials, there are some manufacturers will choose C11000 as the material of copper violet tube.
C12200 copper violet tube: C12200 is a copper alloy containing high copper content, its main component is copper (Cu) and a small amount of phosphorus (P). C12200 is characterized by high density, good thermal conductivity, good processing, high strength, good corrosion resistance, etc., is widely used in the electrical industry, the construction industry, chemical industry and other fields.
C12000 Purple Copper Tube: C12000 is a copper alloy containing high tin (Ti) and iron (Fe), with high strength, good corrosion resistance, etc., especially suitable for pipeline manufacturing, electronic components, shipbuilding and other areas of application.



Second, performance characteristics
Different copper pipe materials have different performance characteristics:
C12200 copper violet tube: high corrosion resistance, high strength, good processability, high thermal conductivity and other characteristics. Because of its fine grain structure, it is suitable for the manufacture of electric heating pipes such as small diameter pipes.
C12000 Purple Copper Tube: Compared with C12200, C12000 has higher hardness and strength, but relatively lower thermal conductivity. Therefore, it is suitable for manufacturing pipes, electronic components and other fields.
C11000 Purple Copper Tube: C11000 is a copper alloy containing zinc (Zn), which has excellent workability and solderability as well as good thermal conductivity. Because of its lower hardness, it is easy to process into complex shapes and is more suitable for applications such as manufacturing electrical wiring.
Third, processing technology
For manufacturers of electric heating tubes, the processing of copper alloy tubes has a significant impact on product cost and quality.
For C12200 copper violet tube, it is difficult to process, need to pay attention to the material heat treatment and control process to ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the product.
C12000 copper violet tube is less machinable than C12200 because of its greater hardness. But high quality output can still be obtained with better tools and proper machining processes.
For C11000 copper violet tube, the machining process is relatively simple, mainly welding and molding. However, it should be noted that, in the choice of copper pipe material should be based on the specific application environment and process requirements for a reasonable choice.
Fourth, the scope of use
In general, as one of the main materials in the electric heater, purple copper tube is widely used in metallurgy, petrochemical, electric power, construction, machinery and other fields of heating equipment, such as heaters and heat exchangers. In addition, the purple copper tube is also used in home appliances, medical equipment and other fields, such as electric water heaters, steam radiators and so on.
[Conclusion
This paper introduces the commonly used materials of copper violet tube for electric heaters, and details the performance characteristics, processing technology and scope of application of different materials. We hope that the content of this article can help readers better understand the materials used in the electric heater violet copper tube, to provide assistance for the industry procurement and production.
