For C11000 machining and ETP copper machining, start with the complete purchasing requirement. C110 is oxygen-bearing copper; specify stock form, temper and the final working surface.
| Purchasing identifier | Your reference |
|---|---|
| UNS | C11000 copper / UNS C11000 |
| Common name | ETP copper / electrolytic tough pitch copper |
| Europe | Cu-ETP / CW004A · producer comparison |
| Ordered form | Bar, plate, sheet or other specified product form |
| Acceptance | Exact standard, temper, lot and receiving requirements |
| Reference element | wt.% |
|---|---|
| Cu, including Ag | ≥99.90 |
| Oxygen | ≤0.040 · selected Cu-ETP reference |
Aurubis C11000 composition and Cu-ETP oxygen references; not a lot analysis. The complete ordered specification governs.
| Review | What your drawing must define |
|---|---|
| Electrical contact | Current path, contact pressure, area and surface. |
| C110 copper thermal conductivity | 391 W/(m·K) at 20°C in the selected Aurubis reference; not a finished heat-sink rating. |
| Final geometry | Fits, datum relationships and accepted edge condition. |
Keep the conductivity requirement separate from machining effort. Approve any material change against your working part and full purchase specification.

No. C110 is electrolytic tough pitch, oxygen-bearing copper. For C110 vs C101 copper, keep the ETP and oxygen-free electronic requirements distinct and approve the complete purchasing specification.
Compare required conductivity, stock form, supplied condition, accessible geometry and final contact surface. Reference machinability indices do not establish cycle time, total cost or automatic substitution.
Review the actual process and heating atmosphere. Oxygen-bearing Cu-ETP needs attention to reducing-atmosphere hydrogen embrittlement; agree joining suitability, qualification responsibility and final material state before production.
Specify the actual product standard and temper code, then review forming needs, machining support and the required final state. EN and U.S. temper labels should not be treated as an automatic one-to-one substitution.
Your C110 copper machining cost depends on usable stock, supplied condition, setups, feature access, burr removal, surfaces, quantity and inspection scope. For a C110 copper machining quote, compare the same drawing revision and receiving requirements.
Review tool condition, chip control, hole intersections and unsupported edges against the actual geometry and stock condition. Agree edge acceptance and first-sample checks before repeating the route.
Identify critical contact and locating features, datums and measurement access. Review each tolerance against the material state, support and final operation; no universal tolerance is quoted for every C110 part.
State document type, heat or lot identity, exact product standard, supplied temper and required test scope. Agree material records separately from dimensional evidence and any complete-assembly electrical test.
