Exothermic Weld Materials

Exothermic Weld Materials

Exothermic Welding process is a very efficient method of making high quality electrical connections and welding is used to create molecular bonds for various metals such as copper to copper, copper to steel, steel to steel, aluminum to copper and aluminum to aluminum. No external source of power is required for the welding.

Exothermic welded connections use high temperature of reaction of powered copper oxide and aluminum. The reaction takes place in a semi-permanent graphite mould that lasts for fifty or more welds if properly cared for.

The exothermic welding reaction takes place in a very few seconds, therefore the total amount of heat applied to the conductors or surfaces is considerably less than that employed in brazing or soldering. Tools of exothermic welding are very light in weight. So it saves time and the occupation or pay of a worker than others.
