Explore our elite range of high-performance copper materials widely utilized in San José and Cartago's high-tech industrial parks.
Costa Rica has positioned itself as the leading high-tech manufacturing hub in Central America. Driven by state-of-the-art Free Trade Zones (FTZs) such as Coyol Free Zone in Alajuela and Cartago Industrial Park, the nation has shifted from traditional agricultural exports to highly complex industrial components. The medical device manufacturing sector, aerospace component engineering, and advanced electronics assembly represent the cornerstone of Costa Rica's modern economy.
For these high-tech sectors, material purity is non-negotiable. C10200 Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC), known for its minimum 99.95% copper content and virtually non-existent oxygen levels, is the gold standard for applications requiring maximum electrical conductivity, thermal performance, and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. As a leading OEM C10200 manufacturer and exporter, Sichuan Kepai New Material Co., Ltd. is proud to supply these critical copper materials to support Costa Rica's industrial evolution.
Unlike standard tough pitch copper (C11000), C10200 is manufactured by melting and casting copper under a protective, non-oxidizing atmosphere. This process reduces oxygen content to less than 0.001% (10 ppm). In Costa Rica's humid tropical climate, electronic and medical components are highly susceptible to oxidation and corrosion. Using C10200 ensures that components processed under high temperatures (such as brazing, welding, or vacuum sealing) do not suffer from internal cracking or structural failure due to hydrogen embrittlement.

As Costa Rica advances its national decarbonization plan and expands its electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, the demand for highly efficient electrical conductors has skyrocketed. C10200 Oxygen-Free Copper plays an irreplaceable role in power electronics, charging stations, and grid modernizations managed by the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE). Below is the standard technical specification of our high-conductivity C10200 oxygen-free copper:
| Property Class | Metric Value | Imperial Value |
|---|---|---|
| Copper Content (Cu Min) | 99.95 % | 99.95 % |
| Oxygen Content (O Max) | 0.001 % (10 ppm) | 0.001 % (10 ppm) |
| Electrical Conductivity (IACS) | 101 % Min | 101 % Min |
| Thermal Conductivity (20°C) | 391 W/m·K | 226 Btu/ft²/ft/hr/°F |
| Tensile Strength (Annealed) | 220 MPa | 32 ksi |
Costa Rica is one of the world's premier destinations for medical technology investments. Inside cleanrooms across Alajuela and Heredia, C10200 OFC is used to manufacture precision components for surgical instruments, cardiac catheters, and diagnostic equipment. Because C10200 is free of volatile impurities, it guarantees absolute stability and biocompatibility, preventing any toxic outgassing during high-temperature sterilizations or laser welding processes.
Costa Rica generates over 99% of its electricity from renewable sources (hydro, geothermal, wind, and solar). To maintain this green grid, power transmission components must run with minimal resistive losses. Our C10200 Oxygen-Free Copper rods and busbars are utilized in heavy-duty solar inverters, wind turbine generators, and the rapidly growing network of EV fast-charging stations across San José, Cartago, and Liberia.
The local aerospace supply chain in Costa Rica requires materials that can withstand vacuum conditions and extreme thermal fluctuations. C10200 is the material of choice for wave guides, vacuum tubes, coaxial cables, and glass-to-metal seals. Its high purity prevents copper vaporization in high-vacuum environments, ensuring system integrity for aerospace communication electronics.
