C12000 copper rod, also known as Deoxidized Low Phosphorus (DLP) copper, is characterized by high conductivity, good corrosion resistance, and excellent formability. Containing a minimum of 99.90% copper with a small amount of phosphorus, C12000 is deoxidized, reducing susceptibility to embrittlement when heated, enhancing its suitability for welding and brazing. Common uses include electrical applications like bus bars, conductors, and grounding rods. It's also favored in architectural applications, roofing, and decorative elements due to its malleability and attractive finish. The combination of conductivity, ductility, and resistance to corrosion makes C12000 copper rod versatile for various manufacturing and electrical applications.
