Copper Cathode

Shera Energy Limited is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of high-purity Copper Cathodes, serving the global power, electrical, and industrial metals ecosystem.

Shera Energy’s copper cathodes are refined at its procured refinery, Shera Zambia Limited, located in Kitwe, Zambia—a strategic hub within Africa’s copper belt. The facility enables strict quality control, vertical integration, and consistent supply of internationally accepted Grade-A copper cathodes.

Copper is one of the few metals that can be used in its near-natural state after refining. It exhibits excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, strong mechanical performance, and outstanding corrosion resistance, making it indispensable across a wide spectrum of industrial applications.

Copper Cathode

Overview & Specifications

Overview

Copper cathodes produced under Shera Energy’s supervision demonstrate:

  • Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity
  • Superior mechanical properties
  • High ductility and plasticity in both hot and cold working conditions
  • Good brazing and welding characteristics
  • Strong corrosion resistance and long service life

Trace oxygen content has minimal impact on conductivity and heat transfer; however, copper cathodes are not recommended for processing in high-temperature reducing atmospheres (above 370°C) due to the risk of hydrogen embrittlement.
