Aluminothermic welding is a method of electrically connecting high conductivity based on the exothermic reaction that occurs when combining aluminum and copper oxide, and start the reaction by ignition spark. The resulting reaction produces copper and molten slag superheated aluminum oxide.
The entire process takes place in a mold of high density graphite specifically designed for electrical connection of two or more conductors.
Welding conductivity and corrosion resistance are outstanding, due to high copper alloy (exceeding 97%).
Since it is an exothermic process, inside reaches more than 2000 ° C, we must exercise caution and follow the instructions and safety precautions carefully.
