Can you use an aluminium wire instead of copper for a simple electrical circuit?
Yes, you can use an aluminum wire. Aluminum does conduct electricity. However, there is a well-known problem with aluminum wire. When exposed to air, the outer layer of aluminum forms a non-conductive oxide. There is resistance to the flow of electricity as it attempts to get through the aluminum oxide coating to the conductive aluminum below. When aluminum wire is used to reduce weight, it is usually welded to another metal that makes a better contact, such as copper. The contact metal is then what is connected.

How are copper fittings joined?
Copper fittings can be joined with a chemical compound or welded with a special copper alloy. In tight spaces or where welding equipment is prohibited, a chemical sealer such as Liquid Copper is recommended.
What is a copper deposit casket and what is a solid copper casket?
Copper deposit caskets are often described as "copper lined caskets" - a description which is misleading because it misses the big differences in production methods, weight and price of solid (sheet) copper caskets versus copper deposit caskets. Solid copper caskets are welded (or soldered) from sheets of wrought copper, while copper deposit caskets are made in a time consuming electrolytic process by which molecules of copper are deposit upon a casket form which usually consists of 48 oz (ounces per square foot) copper or bronze sheets. This provides the casket with extra strength and a very smooth and untarnished surface without welding seams or burns. Copper deposit caskets usually have a wall thickness of 1/8" (3mm - about twice as thick as 48oz copper sheets) resulting in an empty weight of approximately 600 to 800 lbs, while most solid copper caskets weigh between 200 and 300 lbs. In terms of prices, the difference is even bigger, although it is difficult to talk in current prices because copper deposit caskets were manufactured in the US until the end of the 1970s only.
Is aluminium easy to cut?
Aluminium is quite soft and very easy to machine. It can be easily shaped and drilled. It can also be welded fairly easily.
What is aluminum welding called?
It is called aluminum welding. Aluminum can be TIG welded, the most common method, or oxy-fuel welded, or stick welded, or MIG welded.

What materials can be soldered and what can't?
A lot of things from metal to other stuff.
What is the chemical composition of aluminum bronze to get hardness 260 to 270 BHN?
CuAl10Ni5Fe4-UNS.C63000 Aluminum Nickel Bronze Alloy is a special high strength copper aluminum alloy containing 81% copper, 10% aluminum, 5% nickel, 4% iron, which is an excellent choice for applications involving heavy loads, abrasive wear resistant, friction, abrasive wear and corrosion. The addition of nickel increases the alloys strength without diminishing its excellent ductility, toughness and corrosion resistance. Typical applications for C63000 nickel aluminum bronze included aircraft landing gear components strut bearings, main pistons, trunnion bearings and similar vital components.

Can copper be used in damascus steel?
No as it is unable to be forge welded.
How do you tell the difference between copper and aluminium wires?
Shut the main breaker off on your distribution panel. Remove the cover. Look at the colour of the wires that are connected to the breakers. If they are silver in colour then they are aluminum wires. If they are copper in colour then they are copper wires. Replace the panel cover and turn the main breaker back on.
Can you have a radiator crack welded?
Yes, it can be welded, depending on the location of the crack. Some radiators are repairablbe, depending on the construction of the radiator. Older style all-brass/copper radiators can be soldered (not welded) if the leak area is accessible and the surrounding metal is strong enough. Some newer style plastic tank/aluminum core radiators can be repaired if the leak is at the joint between the tank(s) and the core, while others cannot. The plastic tanks themselves and the aluminum cores cannot be reliably repaired.
What does the number of ounces in the description of copper and bronze burial caskets mean?
While the metal strength and durability of steel caskets is measured in gauge (ga.) - indicating the thickness of the metal - the strength of copper and bronze caskets is usually measured by the weight of the wrought metal sheets from which the caskets are welded together. The sheets used in standard solid copper or bronze caskets have a weight of 32 ounces per square foot, while more expensive caskets use 48oz sheets. Most 32 oz caskets have an empty weight between 200 and 300 lbs, most 48oz caskets between 250 and 350 lbs. In rare cases, 64 oz copper sheets or 96 oz bronze sheets are used for luxury caskets. Exceptions confirm the rule: the measurement in ounces per square foot is not used for top of the line copper and bronze caskets: copper deposit caskets (not welded from copper sheets, but made by a time consuming electrolytic process) usually have a wall thickness of 1/8" (3mm) and an empty weight of approximately 600 to 800 lbs, while cast bronze caskets (which are cast from molten bronze like bells) usually have a weight between 1,000 and 1,200 lbs, which equals that of solid bronze caskets made from sheets with a weight of at least 96 oz.
