Materials and Processes
ADC die-casting alloy (aluminum die casting)
Standard material for heat sinks, often combined with a copper block.
HDK die-casting alloy (Foxconn High K)
Alloy with increased thermal conductivity (K=167) for high-performance heat sinks, also suitable for anodizing.
AL6063 (AlMgSi)
Aluminum alloy with high thermal conductivity (K=200) for extruded heat sinks.
Zinc alloy
Material for die-cast heat sinks and transceiver housings.
Copper
Inner conductors, copper blocks and cage versions for high-conductivity applications.
PTFE (Teflon) insulation
Heat- and chemical-resistant cable insulation for demanding environmental conditions.
