Clad metal can be defined as the combination of two or more
metals, metallurgically bonded under high pressure,resulting in a
one-piece composite with physical and electrical properties not
available in a single metal or alloy. Typical types of clad metals are
inlay clad and overlay clad. Up to five inlay stripes of the same
width or of different widths and spacings can be furnished. These
options allow a great flexibillity in design. The Clad metals can be
stamped into various types of highly reliable switches, relays,
connectors, leadframes and other electrical contacts for electronic
products, computers, automotives, telecommunications, business
machines, semiconductors, optical equipment, etc.
