Product Overview:

EN 1652 Copper Sheet is a high-quality copper product that adheres to the European standard EN 1652. This standard specifies the requirements for copper sheets and strips made from high-purity copper, typically classified as Cu-DHP (Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper). EN 1652 Copper Sheets are known for their excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in electrical, industrial, plumbing, and architectural industries. The high ductility of these sheets allows them to be easily fabricated, welded, and soldered, ensuring versatility in design and use.

Unique Features:

EN 1652 Copper Sheet is made from high-purity copper (99.9% minimum), ensuring excellent conductivity for both electricity and heat. The low oxygen content (0.02%) minimizes the risk of copper oxide formation, which can reduce the material’s lifespan. This copper sheet offers superior corrosion resistance, particularly in environments exposed to moisture and chemicals. Its high ductility and malleability make it easy to fabricate, cut, and join through welding or soldering, which is why it is preferred in numerous industries such as electrical systems, plumbing, and architectural applications. With outstanding mechanical properties and the ability to be easily formed into complex shapes, EN 1652 Copper Sheets provide versatility and reliability.

Applications:

• Electrical Systems: EN 1652 Copper Sheets are commonly used in the manufacturing of electrical conductors, cables, busbars, and connectors due to their 100% IACS electrical conductivity, ensuring efficient power transmission with minimal energy loss.
• Heat Exchangers: The high thermal conductivity (398 W/m·K) of EN 1652 Copper Sheets makes them ideal for heat exchanger applications, such as radiators, cooling systems, and industrial HVAC equipment. Their efficiency in heat transfer makes them essential in temperature regulation systems.
• Plumbing & HVAC: EN 1652 Copper Sheet is frequently used in plumbing systems for pipes, fittings, and water distribution systems, as well as in HVAC applications where the material’s resistance to corrosion and long service life are critical.
• Architectural Finishes: Due to its aesthetic appeal, EN 1652 Copper Sheet is often used in architectural and decorative applications such as roofing, cladding, and sculptures. Over time, copper naturally forms a protective patina, which enhances its visual charm and provides additional protection against corrosion.
• Industrial Applications: Copper sheets are also widely used in industrial applications such as automotive parts, machinery components, and other high-performance equipment that require high strength and conductivity.
