Tempers / Mechanical properties

The table below shows a summary of conditions defined in EN 13601. Deviations from the limits given, which are defined in other national or international standards, can usually still be manufactured in most cases (based on appropriate feasibility tests conducted by us).

EN 13600 Copper and copper alloys - Seamless copper tubes for electrical engineering
EN 13601 Copper and copper alloys - Copper bars and wires for general use in electrical engineering
EN 13604 Copper and copper alloys - Products from high-conductivity copper for electron tubes, semiconductor components and for vacuum engineering applications
EN 13605 Copper and copper alloys - Sections and profiled wires for electrical engineering

The extruded condition is not included in the EN 13600 series.
Only the limits for Rm, RpO.2 and A apply to condition descriptions with R.
Only the Brinel hardness limits apply to condition descriptions with H.
Electrical conductivity depends on the material and the solidity condition.
The limits differ slightly from the limits according to DIN 40 500ff for individual parameters.
