SPIDER Automation | 99.96% Pure Nickel Strip for Battery Spot Welding | 0.15mm × 8mm × 100mm
The SPIDER Automation 99.96% Pure Nickel Strip is designed for electrical interconnection of battery cells during the fabrication of rechargeable battery packs. Manufactured from high-purity nickel material, these strips are used to create conductive links between cell terminals through resistance spot welding.
With a specified nickel purity of at least 99.96%, the material offers low electrical resistivity and mechanical strength for battery assembly applications. Its thin, narrow-strip construction makes it suitable for compact battery-pack arrangements, including multi-cell configurations used in portable electronics, power tools and custom battery assemblies.
The strips can also be soldered using suitable soldering materials and techniques, providing flexibility for different fabrication requirements. The package contains 50 individual strips, making it useful for battery-pack production, prototyping and repair work.
