Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the T2 pure copper strip and the nickel-plated copper strip?
A: The T2 pure copper strip is made from high-purity red copper, offering maximum electrical conductivity and current-carrying capacity — ideal for high-drain battery builds. The nickel-plated copper strip features a diffusion nickel coating over the copper core, which adds corrosion resistance, improved oxidation resistance, and greater long-term durability, making it a popular choice for battery packs exposed to varied environmental conditions.
Q: Is this strip compatible with 18650, 21700, and 26650 lithium-ion cells?
A: Yes. The strip is specifically designed for spot welding 18650, 21700, and 26650 cylindrical lithium-ion battery cells. The precision dimensions (0.15 × 10 mm or 0.2 × 10 mm) make it suitable for connecting cells in series or parallel configurations across a wide range of battery pack designs.
Q: What thickness should I choose — 0.15 mm or 0.2 mm?
A: The 0.15 mm thickness is well-suited for standard battery pack builds and is easier to weld with most spot welders. The 0.2 mm thickness offers higher current-carrying capacity and is recommended for larger, higher-power battery assemblies such as EV packs or power tools. Choose based on the current demands of your specific application.
Q: Is this copper strip safe to use with my battery cells?
A: Absolutely. Each strip is precision-machined to minimise burrs and flash, ensuring the battery membrane is not at risk of puncture during assembly. The degreased surface treatment further ensures clean, strong welds. Both variants are CE and RoHS certified, confirming compliance with key safety and environmental standards.
