Why choose titanium clad copper
- Copper core ensures excellent conductivity, reducing power loss and hot spots
- Titanium layer resists acids, alkalis, and chlorides, remaining stable even at liquid surfaces and spray zones.
- Fewer replacements and less downtime make the overall TCO more cost-effective than pure copper, stainless steel, or pure titanium.
- Available in round, square, rectangular, or custom cross-sections; cladding thickness, end sealing, slotting, and drilling can be processed on request.
- Inspection and certificates provided (such as UT, shear/peel strength, cladding-thickness map, EN 10204 3.1) for easy verification and traceability.
You don't have to choose between conductivity and corrosion resistance. Titanium clad copper guarantees performance, uptime, and lifetime cost savings.

Customer success cases
Plating line retrofit
In a plating production line, we replaced heavily corroded copper components with titanium clad copper conductive beams and bus bars.
Result: downtime was reduced by about 40–60%, current distribution became more stable, and coating thickness was more uniform.
SX-EW electrolytic plant (long-span bus bars)
In an SX-EW copper plant, the customer adopted our titanium clad copper bus bars to replace the traditional stainless steel solution.
Result: voltage drop decreased by about 30–50% (under equal cross-section and current conditions), insulation repairs in wet areas were significantly reduced, and operating temperature rise was lower.
Water treatment electrochemical reactor (with MMO/DSA)
In an electrochemical water treatment system, we supplied titanium clad copper connectors with titanium end-cap design.
Result: copper exposure and corrosion were completely eliminated, annual maintenance was limited to visual checks and voltage inspections, and overall maintenance costs dropped significantly.
Note: actual improvement varies depending on the original system condition, cross-section design, current, and environment. The above data comes from real project experience, and detailed test records can be provided for bidding or technical discussions.
How is titanium clad copper made?
Explosive bonding
Explosives are placed between copper and titanium. A controlled explosion generates a high-speed shock wave, forcing the two metals to collide in the solid state and form a wavy metallurgical interface.
- High interfacial bonding strength (typical shear strength ≥150 MPa).
- Suitable for large-size and thick billets.
- Resistant to delamination with good thermal cycle performance.
Typical applications: large bus bars, conductive beams, back plates, and other thick-section components.
Roll bonding (hot rolling / cold rolling)
Titanium and copper are stacked together and repeatedly rolled at high or room temperature. Through plastic deformation and diffusion, a metallurgical bond is formed.
- Uniform interface, suitable for large panel production.
- High production efficiency with relatively low cost.
Typical applications: plates, flat bars, and strips, suitable for electrolytic cell cathode plates and PCB plating bus bars.
Combined process: explosive + rolling
Large billets are first bonded by explosive welding, then reduced to the required thickness through hot rolling or groove rolling.
- Combines the high bonding strength of explosive welding with improved surface quality from rolling.
- Suitable for wide plates and thick flat bars.
Typical applications: thick plates, flat bars, and large bus bars produced to standards such as ASTM B898 or GB/T 12769.
Hot extrusion + drawing
Titanium–copper composite billets are heated and extruded through a die to form bars, tubes, or wires. They are then cold-drawn or drawn with a floating mandrel to improve dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
- Good surface finish and high dimensional precision.
- Better bending performance than single extrusion.
- Suitable for mass production and one of the mainstream methods in the market.
Typical applications: bars, wires, and tubes, especially for plating fixtures, hangers, and electrode wires.
Processing and services
We have extensive experience in manufacturing stainless steel, titanium, nickel, steel, and copper composites.
With deep knowledge of various application scenarios, we can quickly match the right solution to ensure project success.
- Cutting / leveling / straightening: guarantee dimensions and straightness, meeting the installation requirements of long bus bars and conductive beams in electrolytic cells.
- Machining / drilling / slotting: use special tools and proper feeds to avoid tearing the titanium layer; all machining is preferably done before end sealing.
- End-sealing: after machining, ends are weld-sealed or capped with titanium to fully isolate the copper core and prevent copper exposure in wet zones.
- Provide Ti-to-Ti welding (preferred in wet zones/liquid surfaces) and Cu-to-Cu connections arranged in dry areas, ensuring long service life and low contact resistance.
Just send us your drawings or application parameters, and we will provide integrated processing, welding, and inspection services—ready to use upon delivery with no secondary treatment required.

FAQ – titanium clad copper
What's the difference between copper and copper clad?
Pure copper has excellent conductivity but poor corrosion resistance. Titanium clad copper keeps the conductivity of the copper core while the titanium cladding provides long-term protection in corrosive environments.
Is copper titanium cookware safe?
Our products are industrial-grade titanium clad copper, used in electroplating, SX-EW, and water treatment—not cookware.
For cookware, "titanium copper” usually refers to a different consumer-grade process.
What is a titanium clad?
Titanium clad copper is a bimetal composite: high-conductivity copper (C11000 / C10200) inside, titanium Grade 1 or 2 outside.
They are metallurgically bonded by explosive welding or roll bonding.
How do I choose the right cladding thickness?
Most plating and SX-EW lines use 1.0–2.5 mm. For continuous immersion or strong oxidizing conditions, we recommend thicker cladding.
We'll size it precisely based on your current density and bath chemistry.
Can you ensure no exposed copper at cut edges or holes?
Yes. We provide titanium end-caps, weld seals, and edge protection solutions.
How can I compare with pure copper in terms of cost?
Focus on ΔV/energy use, maintenance stops, and service life. We provide a TCO calculator and one-page evaluation templates.
