High Performance Contact Assemblies

Checon's silver, silver tin oxide, and silver cadmium oxide electrical contacts and contact assemblies are engineered for performance in demanding industrial control and switching environments, using advanced brazing and joining processes.  These silver based contacts are brazed or welded onto copper or copper alloy substrates or bus bars that have been precision-stamped or CNC-machined.

Checon's proprietary Toplay and RapidOne furnace and inductance-brazing processes ensure a superior bond interface, delivering reliable, cost-effective solutions for high-demand electrical contact applications.

Our electrical contacts are integrated across various conductive systems. See how they're used in copper bus bar assemblies for OEM power distribution applications.

Refractory Electrical Contacts

Checon offers refractory electrical contacts engineered for arc resistance, durability, and long service life in high-duty electrical switching applications. Our silver tungsten, copper tungsten, and silver graphite discrete refractory tips are fabricated with copper substrates into high-performance copper assemblies using Checon's automated RapidOne Brazing System, ensuring exceptional bond and durability. The result is a cost-effective, long-lasting contact solution that performs reliably in the most demanding electrical applications.
