Bimetallic Washer, Plates & Sheets
Bimetallic Strip, Bimetallic Plates, Bimetallic Sheets, Bimetallic Washers Suppliers, Manufacturer, Exporter Stockist in Mumbai/ India
SIMCO houses copper/aluminium bimetal strips, bimetal plates, bimetal sheets and bimetal washers. Copper/Aluminium Bimetal a.k.a Copper Clad Aluminium is used for various purposes and has numerous applications such as in Thermometers, Circuit Breakers, Isolators, Fire Alarms, Electrical Devices, etc. It is used to convert a temperature change into mechanical displacement. The different expansions force it to bend one way if heated and in the opposite direction if cooled below its initial temperature.
Sidhartha Metal Company is one of the leading Manufacturer, Exporter and Supplier of Copper/Aluminium Bimetal from India. With our own manufacturing setup, vast experience and highly skilled personnel we are able to provide high quality bimetallic products suiting to the customer’s specific demands. We also have in-house facility to manufacture customized bimetallic components such as bimetal sleeves and washers and thus, we have been able to supply bimetallic products to many government, semi-government and major private organizations in India and abroad.
We keep 300mm x 600mm bimetal plates and sheets in ready stock in thickness ranging from 1mm to 3mm and can provide other bimetallic products as per customer’s demands.
Why Copper/Aluminium Bimetal?
- It is known that when the aluminium terminals are directly connected to copper terminals to carry current at a high voltage, a bimetallic galvanic corrosion occurs, resulting in a high resistance at the joint. The heated joints are oxidized and lose contact resulting in sparks, voltage dropout, power losses and failure and damage to machinery. When copper/aluminium bimetal is placed as a transition plate between the terminals at the joint (with Copper facing Copper and Aluminium facing Aluminium), bimetallic galvanic corrosion is averted due to absence. Thus, copper/aluminium bimetal is used at dissimilar metal joints of aluminium and copper to make similar metals contact.
