Custom Metal Terminals: Stamping, Plating, and Material Choices
Custom metal terminals are the small, high-volume parts that make or break an electrical connection. From battery lugs to PCB tabs and ring terminals, a custom metal terminal must carry current, resist corrosion, and seat cleanly every time. Getting stamping, material, and plating right is what separates a reliable terminal from a field failure, and […]
Beryllium Copper Parts: Conductive, Springy, Precision-Machined
Beryllium copper parts sit in a sweet spot that few alloys reach: high electrical and thermal conductivity, good strength, excellent spring behaviour, and non-sparking safety in one material. That combination makes BeCu the default for connectors, springs, and contacts in electronics, aerospace, and oil & gas, where a part must carry current, return to shape, […]
Copper CNC Machining: High-Conductivity Parts Done Right
Copper CNC Machining: High-Conductivity Parts Done Right Copper CNC machining is the route to busbars, heatsinks, RF waveguides, and conductive terminals where electrical or thermal conductivity is the entire point of the part. Pure copper is soft, gummy, and prone to burrs, so it needs a different touch than brass or aluminum. This guide covers […]
