Maximize Battery Performance with the Highest Commercially Available Purity Nickel

Increase conductivity by 20% with our ISO-certified pure nickel strip materials, engineered for superior quality in critical battery applications.

How Can We Help?

What's included in this whitepaper?

  • The benefits of pure wrought powder metallurgy strip for batteries
  • How to increase battery conductivity by 20% compared to cast materials
  • The metallurgical differences between nickel 200, 201, 205, 225 and 270
  • Insights into weldability, thermal conductivity, and electrical resistivity
The Highest Purity for 20% Greater Conductivity

Material purity is key to optimal conductivity and battery performance. Our nickel strip, engineered using advanced wrought powder metallurgy, achieves an industry-leading 99.98% purity - the highest commercially available. This reduces impedance and increases conductivity by up to 20% compared to traditional cast materials.

Improved Power-to-Weight Ratio

The ultra-high conductivity of our nickel strip improves power transmission, enabling battery tab miniaturization without compromising power capacity. This makes it possible to produce smaller, lighter strips that reduce overall material weight and cost, all while maintaining performance.

Trusted in Critical Battery Applications

Our nickel strip is advantageous for battery tabs and connectors, enabling efficient connection in battery packs used in NiMH, NiCd, or Li-Ion systems. These packs power rechargeable devices, such as computers, cardiac pacemakers, electric vehicles, and aerospace batteries.

Pure Nickel Strip Grades

Nickel 270

Our Nickel 270 strip (899A) is the highest commercially pure grade with 99.98% purity, delivering superior conductivity compared to cast products.

Nickel 200

Our Nickel 200 strip (899L) offers improved conductivity over Nickel 200 and 201, while maintaining comparable mechanical properties.

Nickel 201

Nickel 201/200 strip (899M) replaces Nickel 200 and 201, offering similar mechanical properties without the higher conductivity of purer grades like 899L and 899A.
