CIVEN Metal Thin Rolled-Annealed (RA) Brass Foil is manufactured via multi-pass cold rolling and controlled intermediate heat treatment. Engineered for tight dimensional tolerances and uniform mechanical response, this non-ferrous strip delivers stable electrical conductivity, precise gauge control, and consistent formability for high-speed stamping and deep drawing lines. Supplied as master or precision-slit coils tailored to automated manufacturing specifications.

 

Key Material

 

Alloy Designations: C2680 (CuZn33), C2800 (CuZn40), C2600 (Cartridge Brass, CuZn30).
Chemical Composition:
Copper (Cu): 65.0% - 71.0% (alloy dependent)
Zinc (Zn): Remainder
Impurities (Pb, Fe, Cd): <= 0.05%, verified via ICP-OES spectrometry.
Microstructure: Fully recrystallized, uniform equiaxed grain structure ensuring isotropic mechanical behavior. 

 

Performance Features

 

Formability: High elongation ratios support micro-bending, deep drawing, and progressive die stamping with minimal spring-back and zero edge cracking.

Electrical Conductivity: Ranges from 22% to 28% IACS (at 20 deg C), maintaining low electrical resistance in micro-electronic current paths.

Surface Integrity: Clean, rolling-oil-free surface with controlled roughness (Ra <= 0.4 um) and zero pinholes or oxide scale inclusion.

Mechanical Strength: Tailored temper conditions (Annealed O, Half-Hard H, Extra-Hard EH, Spring Hard SEH) delivering tensile strengths from 300 MPa to over 700 MPa.

Manufacturing & Quality Control

 

Cold Rolling: Multi-roll reversing mills integrated with Automatic Gauge Control (AGC) and laser sensors, maintaining cross-web thickness variance within +/- 1%.

Intermediate Annealing: Bell-type furnaces utilizing high-purity hydrogen-nitrogen protective atmospheres to eliminate oxidation and control grain size.

Precision Slitting: Rotary shear slitting lines with carbide tooling, restricting edge burr height to <= 5% of foil thickness.

Inspection Protocol: Real-time online X-ray thickness monitoring, universal tensile testing, 100% eddy current defect screening, and batch-wise ICP-OES elemental analysis.

Certifications: Produced under IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 quality protocols.

 

Applications

 

Flexible Electronics

Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) shielding layers, stiffeners, and micro-connectors.

New Energy

Lithium-ion battery current collector components and conductive tabs.

Automotive

Precision sensor diaphragms, radiator cooling fin stock, and terminal pins.

Industrial Hardware

Etched lead frames, micro-shims, and acoustic diaphragms.

 

Customization & OEM Supply

 

Dimensions: Slit widths, coil inner diameters (3 inch / 76 mm or 6 inch / 152 mm cores), and outer diameter constraints matched to press uncoiler capacities.
Tempers: Mechanical properties matched to specific stamping die clearance and spring-back requirements.
Surface Passivation: Optional anti-tarnish chemical passivation to prevent oxidation during extended storage. 

 

Packaging & Delivery

 

Protective Structure: Suspended wooden crates lined with waterproof barriers, enclosing vacuum-sealed heavy-duty polyethylene bags with VCI emitters and silica gel desiccant.
Interleaving: Acid-free tissue paper interleaving applied for foils below 0.05 mm to prevent scratching.
Traceability: Each master coil laser-etched with a unique ID and accompanied by a physical Material Test Report (MTR). 

 

Why CIVEN Metal

 

Vertical Integration: Full in-house control from alloy casting, hot rolling, multi-pass cold reduction, annealing, to precision slitting.
Batch Consistency: Direct mill processing ensuring repeatable mechanical properties and minimal lot-to-lot variance.
Engineering Support: Direct access to metallurgical engineers for alloy selection, prototyping, and technical specification reviews. 

 

FAQ

 

Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for non-standard slit widths?

A: Standard MOQ is 300 kg per item. Trial sample quantities for initial testing are accommodated based on current mill scheduling.

Q: How is oxidation prevented during international maritime transit?

A: Coils are vacuum-sealed inside high-density polyethylene bags containing VCI vapor inhibitors, packed inside fumigation-free wooden crates with external moisture barriers.

Q: Are third-party material inspection reports available?

A: Yes. Pre-shipment inspection by agencies such as SGS, TUV, or Bureau Veritas can be arranged upon request.

Q: What is the standard production lead time?

A: Production cycles range from 15 to 25 days depending on alloy specification, temper, and order volume.
