Nitrode® | Dispersion Strengthened Copper C15760, RWMA Class 20
Luvata Nitrode® cap electrodes are 1.1% AL2O3 in Copper. Dispersion Strengthened Copper C15760, RWMA Class 20. The most cost effective cap electrode available for resistance welding applications.
Cost savings
Nitrode electrodes deliver cost savings when compared with conventional electrodes.
Longer life
Adjusting heat-programs allows you to take advantage of the longer life of Nitrode electrodes.
No other cap electrode can match Nitrode for its cost-effective, high quality performance in resistance-welding applications.
Advantages of Nitrode® include:
- Longer weld life
- Non-stick
- Resists mushrooming
- Reduces energy requirements
- Works on all steels
- Smoother start-ups
Traceability
All Luvata materials are fully traceable. Nitrode electrodes are easily recognizable by their single, evenly spaced knurls.
Specifications
Luvata’s Nitrode® cap is a cold-formed alloy of copper dispersion strengthened with Aluminum Oxide.
