Products Description

 

 

We offer a Silver Metal Alloy Electrical Contact manufactured using a cold forging process. The component is of single-material construction, available in multiple silver alloy variants including 99.99% Pure Ag, AgNi10, AgSnO₂(10), AgSnO₂In₂O₃(12), and AgCdO(10). As a key conductive interface within relays and industrial switching devices, it is specifically developed to satisfy the high-reliability requirements prevalent in renewable energy applications. The synergy of appropriate alloy selection, precision forming, and rigorous quality verification ensures stable contact resistance, superior arc endurance, and an extended switching life. These performance characteristics collectively contribute to the efficient and dependable performance of photovoltaic inverters, energy storage power conversion systems, charging infrastructure, and similar energy-system components.

Frequently Asked Questions
 

Why do new energy relays use Solid Rivet Contacts instead of composite contacts?

The operating current of relays in new energy systems is usually large (40A~100A and above), and frequent switching is required. In composite contacts, the interface between the silver layer and the copper substrate may diffuse or peel off due to thermal cycling after prolonged high-current switching, leading to increased contact resistance. Integral silver alloy contacts eliminate this interface, resulting in superior long-term switching stability.

What are the performance differences between Silver Alloy Point Contacts and machined contacts?

Cold-forged contacts have high material utilization, high surface hardness, and dense fiber structure, offering superior fatigue and arc erosion resistance compared to machined contacts. Machined contacts also offer higher dimensional accuracy, making them suitable for ultra-small batches or special shapes. For standard relay contacts, cold forging is the most cost-effective solution.

Does this contact support non-standard customization based on our relay drawings?

Customization of dimensions, head curvature, and stem length is supported. Engineers can develop molds based on customer-provided 2D/3D drawings and deliver customized Pure Silver Switch Contacts and various alloy contact samples.
