LPI NZ delivers exothermic bonding solutions to electrical engineers throughout NZ.

By creating an alumino-thermic reaction to weld metals, we create a simple, efficient and high quality metal connection.

What is Exothermic Welding?

The exothermic welding process is a method of making electrical connections of copper to copper or copper to steel in which no outside source of heat or power is required.

  • In this process, granular metals (granular copper oxide and aluminium) are placed from a satchel into a graphite crucible and ignited.
  • The reduction of copper oxide by the aluminium (exothermic reaction) produces molten copper and aluminium oxide slag.
  • The slag floats to the surface and the disk melts, allowing molten copper to flow into the weld cavity and complete the weld. The weld is allowed to solidify.
  • The mold is removed and made ready for the next weld. The process takes seconds to complete.
