In the steelmaking industry, copper is not only a critical industrial metal but also a key factor affecting the production cost and delivery cycle of continuous casting copper mould tubes, transformers, electrical systems, and cooling equipment. In continuous casting operations, copper mould tubes are essential consumable components whose thermal conductivity, wear resistance, and stability directly impact billet quality and production efficiency.

As copper prices fluctuate, more steel plants are shifting their focus from short-term purchasing costs to long-term operational stability, product lifespan, and overall efficiency. Although premium copper products may involve higher initial investment, they help reduce downtime, maintenance frequency, and production risks, delivering better long-term value.

Taking JISTEEL as an example, the company has long focused on supplying metallurgical equipment and consumables for steel plants. Its continuous casting copper mould tubes are manufactured using brand-new high-purity copper materials without recycled scrap mixtures, ensuring superior thermal performance and operational reliability. Customized dimensions, coatings, and cooling structures are also available to meet different casting conditions.
