galvanic:

Copper alloys present a high and positive standard potential of corrosion. Consequently, there is a risk of galvanic corrosion if they enter into contact with material of lower standard potential such as, for example, steels containing less than 13% chromium.

 

Typical applications

  • ball point pen tips

  • components for fiber optic connectors

  • screws
