Copper-plated steel strip has a wide range of uses, mainly thanks to its high electrical and thermal conductivity. This material has important applications in several fields, including electronics, electrical appliances, construction, engineering, automotive manufacturing, aerospace, and more.

Electronics and electrical appliances industry: Copper-plated steel strip is often used as a connecting wire or conductive material for electronic components for the manufacture of electronic circuit boards, circuits, etc. due to its good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. In addition, its good processability and mechanical properties also make it suitable for the manufacture of electrical equipment, motors, transformers and so on.

Construction and engineering field: Copper-plated steel strip can be used to manufacture heat exchanger equipment such as radiators and coolers due to its good thermal conductivity. It can also be used as a building material for the manufacture of roofs, walls and other components to improve the weather resistance and corrosion resistance of buildings.

Automobile manufacturing: In automobile production, copper-plated steel strip can be used as a material for battery contact plates, wires, heat sinks and other components to improve the performance and stability of automobiles.

Aerospace: Due to its lightweight, corrosion-resistant and high-temperature-resistant properties, copper-plated steel strip can also be used as a material for aerospace devices such as airplanes, satellites and rockets.

Other applications: Copper-plated steel strip is also used to produce bonded tubes, which are commonly used in automotive fuel lines, underfloor heating tubes, air-conditioning tubes, and so on. In addition, copper-plated steel strand is also a new type of bimetallic composite material with the advantages of light specific gravity, copper-saving, low cost, etc. It is the replacement product of traditional copper wire, and is generally used in the horizontal grounding body for high requirements of work grounding, protective grounding, lightning protection grounding and anti-static grounding.

In summary, copper-plated steel strip has been widely used in many industries due to its unique physical and chemical properties, and is a multifunctional new material.
