Titanium Clad Copper Busbar

Titanium Clad Copper (Ti-Cu Clad)is a high performance bimetallic conductor composed of a pure copper core and an industrial-grade titanium outer layer. This composite material combines the excellent electrical conductivity of copper with the superior corrosion resistance of titanium, making it ideal for harsh chemical and electrochemical environments.

We manufacture a wide range of titanium clad copper bars,rods,busbars, and anode plates using explosive bonding,hot rolling, or diffusion welding techniques.

Titanium Clad Copper Busbar is a premium bimetallic conductor composed of a high purity electrolytic copper core (C11000 or T2) and a corrosion resistant titanium cladding layer (Grade 1 or Grade 2). This product is specially designed for electrochemical applications requiring both excellent electrical conductivity and outstanding resistance to acidic or alkaline environments.

Using explosion bonding or diffusion welding, the titanium and copper are metallurgically bonded to ensure high bonding strength, uniform thickness, and long-lasting performance under harsh industrial conditions.

Substrate materials: Copper T1, T2/C11000, anaerobic Copper TU1 TU2, Aluminum etc.

The clad materias: Titanium Ti, Zirconium Zr, Nickel Ni, Tantalum Tan, stainless steel (304, 316L), etc.
