Bimetal Washers
Bimetal washers also known as bimetallic washers are specially engineered components made by bonding two dissimilar metals typically copper on one side & aluminium on the other. These washers are manufactured using a rolling bonding process, where copper (sheet metal) is permanently clad onto pure aluminium (base metal) to form a strong mechanical bond. Unlike electroplating or alloys, the metals are not fused chemically but joined through pressure and heat to create a durable & inseparable layer. With an 80:20 composition ratio (80% aluminium and 20% copper), these washers are used in electrical or industrial applications that require high conductivity, mechanical strength & corrosion resistance.Bimetal sheet are popular products that used for electrical devices. It is composed of different separate metals combined together. It converts the changes of temperature into the mechanical displacement. It is widely used for the connections between aluminium conductor as well as copper. The bimetallic washers and plate help to prevent the problem’s onset. The bimetallic products are obtained by explosion welding.
Key Features :
