Electrical Contacts
Brazing alloys for high-performance electrical contact applications
Electrical contact applications are among the most demanding in terms of reliability, conductivity and long-term performance. Components such as relays, contactors, switches and power distribution systems operate under severe conditions, characterized by high currents, frequent switching cycles and the presence of electrical arc.
In this context, brazing alloys play a critical role, ensuring safe, stable and high-performance joints between conductive materials.
Pietro Galliani offers a complete range of silver- and copper-based brazing alloys, specifically developed to meet the requirements of electrical contact applications.
