Nestled in the industrial heart of Safat, Kuwait, Nimish Metal has built a strong reputation for supplying high-quality metals, and at the forefront of our offerings are Copper C10500 Bars and Rods. We understand that the integrity of your projects depends on the purity of your materials. That’s why we provide premium C10500, a metal chosen for its exceptional electrical conductivity and reliability, ensuring your operations in Kuwait and beyond are built on a foundation of proven excellence and consistent performance.
To get technical, Copper C10500 is essentially pure, unalloyed copper, consisting of at least 99.95% copper content, including silver. This high purity gives it outstanding electrical conductivity, rated at 101% IACS. Mechanically, it offers a typical tensile strength of 35-45 ksi and yield strength around 30 ksi. It can be easily hardened through cold working to achieve higher strength levels. The material maintains excellent formability and can be annealed to a soft state, though it work-hardens during fabrication.
