CuNi44 Bar for Reliable Thermocouple Manufacturing
Our CuNi44 bar is a rock star for thermocouple manufacturing, built to deliver precision and reliability in the toughest conditions. This copper-nickel alloy, with 44% nickel and sometimes a pinch of manganese, is our top choice for applications where accurate temperature measurement and durability are critical.
What makes CuNi44 bar shine is its thermoelectric performance. It’s a go-to for Type T thermocouples, offering stable, accurate temperature readings in everything from aerospace turbines to industrial furnaces. With a thermal stability of up to 500°C, it handles high-heat environments like a pro, making it perfect for precision resistors and other electrical components too. Its consistent resistivity—around 5-6% IACS—ensures your systems stay on point.
Corrosion resistance is another big win. The high nickel content makes this bar a beast against rust, whether it’s in chemical plants, marine settings, or humid industrial environments. It keeps performing where other materials would corrode, which means less maintenance and longer-lasting thermocouples. That’s a huge plus for industries like energy and manufacturing where downtime is a no-go.
We love how easy CuNi44 bar is to work with. Its excellent formability lets you machine, weld, or shape it into whatever your thermocouple design needs—bars, rods, or custom profiles. Need a specific size or spec? We can customize it to fit your project perfectly, saving you time and effort during production.
The industry’s all about materials that are precise, durable, and sustainable, and CuNi44 bar hits all those marks. It’s recyclable, which is awesome for eco-friendly initiatives, and its long lifespan means less waste from replacements. With thermocouples playing a bigger role in smart manufacturing and renewable energy—think automated systems and wind turbines—CuNi44’s reliability is in high demand.

Compared to other materials, CuNi44 stands out. Pure copper’s great for conductivity but fails in corrosive or high-heat settings. CuNi30Mn offers slightly better conductivity but less corrosion resistance, making CuNi44 the better pick for precision thermocouples. Chromel’s a thermocouple staple but doesn’t match CuNi44’s corrosion resistance in harsh environments. This bar nails the balance for high-stakes applications.
