C18160 is the Unified Numbering System (UNS) designation for a copper-chromium-zirconium alloy, also known as chrome-zirconium copper or CuCrZr.

Key details about C18160 copper alloy:

1. Composition:

   • Copper: Approximately 99%
   • Chromium: 0.5-1.2%
   • Zirconium: 0.05-0.15%
   • Other elements (e.g., iron, phosphorus, sulfur): Trace amounts

2. Properties:

   • Improved strength and hardness compared to pure copper
   • Enhanced resistance to softening at elevated temperatures
   • Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity
   • Good wear and corrosion resistance
   • Improved creep resistance and stress relaxation behavior

3. Applications:

   • Electrical contacts and connectors
   • Commutator segments for electric motors
   • Welding and soldering electrodes
   • Semiconductor lead frames
