Copper tinsel is designed for passive static electricity elimination with fine, pointed strands for corona discharge. Copper gauze is designed for cleaning equipment with a knitted flat-wire structure for scraping without scratching.
Yes, copper gauze is specifically designed for use on hot machinery. Being 100% metal, it won’t burn or smoke. This allows cleaning without costly cool-down time.
Copper tinsel features a copper wire core specifically designed for positive grounding. Connect the core wire to a proper ground point near the installation location.
No, soft copper will not scratch or damage hardened steel machine parts. The copper is softer than the equipment surfaces it cleans.
Yes, pure solid copper will not rust or contaminate your end product, making it ideal for applications where product purity is essential.
Copper gauze typically cleans in less than one hour compared to other methods like charring or wire brushes. Some single-screw extruders can be cleaned by feeding gauze through the hopper without cool-down.
