EN 12163 Copper Round Rods Anti-Corrosion Metal Bars For Industrial
Machinery
EN 12163 Copper Round Rods are engineered for industrial machinery applications demanding superior corrosion resistance, high mechanical strength, and long-term reliability. Compliant with EN 12163 (CW004A/CW020A) standards, these rods are crafted from 99.9% pure copper with optional alloy enhancements for extreme environments.
Available in 10mm–150mm diameters, they are ideal for bearings, bushings, hydraulic systems, and
marine equipment.
Key Advantages:
- Anti-Corrosion Performance: Resists oxidation, sulfidation, and acid exposure (tested per ISO
9227).
- High Strength: Tensile strength up to 350 MPa and hardness up to 85 HV for heavy-load applications.
- Precision Machining: Tight diameter tolerances (±0.05mm) and smooth surface finish (Ra
≤1.6µm).
- Global Compliance: Meets EN 12163, ASTM B124, and RoHS/REACH regulations.
- Custom Solutions: Cut-to-length (0.5m–6m), polished/grinded finishes, and
anti-galling coatings.
- Sustainability: 100% recyclable material + ISO 14001-certified production.
