Silver-tungsten rod is a composite material made from silver and tungsten, combining silver's high electrical conductivity with tungsten's high hardness and wear resistance. Silver-tungsten rods exhibit excellent conductivity, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for applications requiring both good electrical and wear performance, such as electrical contacts, brushes, electrodes, and components in high-temperature environments.
Due to tungsten’s high melting point and silver’s conductivity, silver-tungsten rods demonstrate outstanding resistance to welding and low resistivity in electrical equipment, making them particularly suitable for high-current switching devices and arc environments.
