Welcome to Tariku Metals, your trusted partner in the heart of Addis Ababa. We are a dedicated manufacturer and supplier, proud to provide industry-grade materials that fuel local projects and national growth. Our focus today is on the exceptional Copper C10500, a material we supply in both bar and rod forms, known for its outstanding reliability and performance in demanding applications. We are committed to delivering quality you can count on, right here in Ethiopia’s vibrant capital.
This specific copper, known as C10500, is essentially pure, containing a minimum of 99.95% copper. This high purity is what gives it excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, making it one of the most efficient choices for moving heat and electricity. While it is a relatively soft metal, it can be work-hardened to increase its strength. It also offers great formability and ductility, allowing it to be shaped and drawn into wires easily, and it resists corrosion beautifully.
