All products meet Resistance Welder Manufacturers Association (RWMA) standards. RWMA products are offered in Round Rods from .250" to 3.650" diameter; in Square Bars from .375" to 2.500" [...]
Copper Tube Corrosion Resistance No other plumbing material has the service performance record of copper water tube and fittings. Copper tube has been used for hot and cold water systems since the 1930s. And it is not uncommon for these early installations to still be performing satisfactorily 60 years later! There are thousands upon thousands [...]
RWMA COPPER ALLOYS RWMA Class Type of Material CDA No. Primary Use Class 1 Copper-Zirconium C15000 Zirconium Copper is used in spot welding electrodes and seam weld wheels. It is particularly useful when welding galvanized materials because of its high thermal conductivity, which prevents sticking. Class 2 Copper-Chromium C18200 Chromium Copper is the primary copper [...]
Brazing Copper Tube Brazing is another joining process for connecting copper tube and fittings. However, it involves filler metals that melt at temperatures ranging from 590oC (1,100oF) to 815oC (1,500oF), which are much higher than the solders covered in the previous section. The temperature at which a filler metal starts to melt on heating is [...]
Why Select Copper? Superior performance at reasonable cost! Copper tube and fittings are chosen for the majority of new and retrofit installations in China, because the advantages of copper systems provide long, trouble-free service at low, total installed cost. Why Select Copper Light & Compact: Copper’s light weight permits easier handling and prefabrication. [...]
Soldering Copper Tubing Part 2 Assembly and Support Insert the tube-end into the fitting cup, making sure that the tube is seated against the base of the fitting cup. (Figure 9) A slight twisting motion ensures even coverage of the flux. Remove excess flux from the exterior of the joint with a cotton rag. (Figure [...]
Soldering Copper Tube Soldering is a process that joins base metals using a filler metal (solder) which melts at a lower temperature than the base metals. Most soldering is done with solders that melt at temperatures ranging from approximately 175oC (350oF) to 290oC (550oF). In order to consistently make satisfactory joints, the sequence of operations [...]
