Why do connector terminals use copper alloy materials?

The terminals of electronic connectors are hardware accessories in connectors. Generally speaking, the terminal materials need to have good elastic coefficient, excellent bending, excellent fatigue strength, high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, and no environmental hazards. material, etc. Currently, copper alloys are the most common terminal materials, mainly because of their five outstanding performance advantages:

1. Copper alloy has certain corrosion resistance, which can increase the corrosion resistance of electronic connectors.

2. The ductility of copper alloy material is better, which can provide excellent bending and stretching properties for electronic connectors.

3. Copper alloy material has high electrical conductivity, which can provide good electrical conductivity for electronic connectors.

4. The durability of copper alloy material is good, which can provide stable reliability and longer service life for electronic connectors.

5. The copper alloy material has good formability and can provide good plasticity for electrical connectors.
