If you're looking for cost-effective performance across the entire spectrum of power switching and control, Checon material experts can assist your engineers in designing solutions that meet your specific needs. From high conductivity with low contact resistance to arc suppression for long contact life, Checon supplies a wide range of performance metal alloys and contact materials in various wire, strip, discrete tip, or tape forms. All of our materials are fabricated to customer print, quality, packaging, and logistics requirements, ensuring that you get exactly what you need to get the job done right.
Checon offers a comprehensive selection of both silver-based alloys and non-silver materials to meet the demands of our markets, including fine silver and silver nickel used in light switching applications, metal oxide materials favored for mid-power switching, refractory materials utilizing tungsten, and other ultra-high-temperature metal formulations.
Some of the most demanding applications, such as industrial circuit protection, automatic transfer switching, and power distribution switching in the grid, require the strength and heat resistance only found in refractory contact materials such as silver tungsten, silver tungsten carbide, and silver graphite. These products can be sold as discrete tips but are also offered in assemblies utilizing Checon’s proprietary discrete attachment processes such as RapidOne automation, furnace, inductance, and resistance brazed processes. Because the electrical current demands are significant, many of these substrates utilize Checon’s CNC and water jet machining capabilities.
