As a leader in the production of high-technology clad-metal products, Anomet applies this technology to the production of copper cored glass sealing alloys. These glass-to-metal sealing (GTMS) alloys result in a high quality product with uniform hermetic sealing characteristics capable of carrying up to six times more current than the same size solid wire.
Characteristics of Anomet's Copper Cored Glass-to-Metal Sealing Alloys

|
Description
|
| Complete Metallurgical Bond |
Provides complete hermetic sealing between the metals, excellent mechanical strength, ductility and greater reliability. |
| Copper Core |
Permits simple electrical connections and greater conductivity which allows a smaller conductor than solid for the same power requirements. |
| Core Ratio |
Unique processing allows any ratio of 446SS (Stainless), Alloy 52, Alloy 42-6,or Kovar® to copper can be made (i.e. diameter of glass sealing alloy to diameter of copper core).* |
| Custom Processing & Other Alloys |
Temper, surface finish, and packaging may all be customized to your specific requirements. Other glass sealing alloys are available on request. |
