Welcome to Tariku Metals, your trusted partner in Addis Ababa for high-quality copper materials. We take pride in supplying and manufacturing Copper C11500, a premium grade known for its exceptional performance. As a local enterprise, we are dedicated to supporting Ethiopia’s growing industries with reliable, readily available products that meet the most demanding specifications. Our commitment is to provide not just materials, but dependable solutions that help your projects succeed with efficiency and durability.
Copper C11500 is essentially pure copper, composed of at least 99.95% copper with just a trace amount of silver. This specific composition gives it an excellent balance of high electrical and thermal conductivity. Mechanically, it offers good ductility and formability, making it relatively easy to work with for various fabrication needs. While it is a softer metal, it possesses admirable strength and remarkable resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance in a wide range of environments.
