Hexagonal copper rods

Hexagonal copper rods form the foundation of modern industrial components. Due to their uniform cross-section and excellent physicochemical properties, they are indispensable where high electrical conductivity, assembly stability, and ease of machining are critical.

Hexagonal Copper Rods – Precision for Industry and Energy


Hexagonal copper rods are the cornerstone of modern industrial components. With their regular cross-section and excellent physico-chemical properties, they are indispensable where high electrical conductivity, assembly stability, and ease of machining are crucial.


Application of Hexagonal Copper Rods

Hexagonal rods are chosen by engineers because of their versatility. They are used in key sectors of the economy:

  • Energy and Electrical Engineering: production of connectors, terminals, clamps, cable ends, and switchgear components.

  • Mechanical Processing (CNC): ideal for the production of turned and milled parts (screws, nuts, sleeves).

  • Electronics and Automation: structural components requiring high conductivity.

  • Machine Construction: shafts and structural elements with high strength.

  • HVAC and Refrigeration Technology: elements effectively conducting heat.

  • Heavy Industry: machine parts operating at extreme temperatures.

Hexagonal vs. Round Rods – Why Choose Hexagon?

Choosing a hexagonal profile instead of a standard round rod brings specific technological advantages:

  1. Easy Clamping: Hexagonal cross-section ensures a stable grip in lathe jaws, eliminating slip risk and minimising the so-called runout.

  2. Reduction of Material Losses: Using a rod with the target shape (e.g., for screw production) significantly reduces the amount of waste (chip) generated during processing.

  3. Assembly Efficiency: Hexagonal geometry allows for quick tightening of elements with standard tools, which is essential in precision installations.
