A make-break-contact wears because of the arcs generated while opening and closing. The CF and CFA series offer contact materials with less wear and exhibit performance similar to that of conventional Ag-CdO based contact materials.

Contact resistance is one of the important characteristics for make-break-contacts. We provide materials that exhibit low contact resistance even at low contact pressures.
