Sherbrooke Metals is a primary manufacturer of Copper Tungsten and Silver Tungsten refactory composites. These
products are produced under strict processing guidelines using the powder metallurgy techniques of pressing,
sintering and infiltrating with copper or silver.
RESISTANCE WELDING
A group of welding processes where joining of metal is accomplished by the heat produced from the resistance of
the article to flow of electrical current in a circuit of which the article is a part. This occurs when pressure is directed
at the electrodes where the electrical circuit is initiated and concluded.
SHERALLOY
Sherbrooke Resistance Welding Electrode Material
Sheralloy copper-tungsten and silver-tungsten is manufactured for specific use as electrode material for resistance
welding and other similar related electrical contact wear applications.
Sheralloy refractory alloys are manufactured by the powder metallurgy techniques of pressing, sintering and
infiltrating of tungsten with copper or silver. Sheralloy is produced under rigid manufacturing fixed processes resulting
in a high degree of metallurgical uniformity held in the fine-grained micro-structure of the finished materials. To the
user this means an extremely high performance welding electrode which will perform well under most severe
applications.
SHERCUT
EDM & ECM Electrodes
Shercut copper-tungsten and silver-tungsten are manufactured as materials
for EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) and ECM (Electro Chemical Machining). Sherbrooke Shercut materials are
also manufactured by the powder metallurgy techniques of pressing, sintering, and infiltrating tungsten with copper
or silver. shercut is produced under the same rigid manufacturing, fixed processes and strict quality control
supervision as Sheralloy. This assures a high performance electrode providing greater cutting stability, excellent
machinability and reduced down time. For extremely close tolerance work, shercut maintains dimensional accuracy
and will have longer operating life due to the high metallurgical integrity found in our copper or silver-tungsten
electrode materials.
