Thermostatic Bimetal Sheet and Strip
Thermostatic bimetal sheet and strip for U.S. buyers
Thermostatic bimetal is a bonded composite of metals with different coefficients of thermal expansion. A temperature change produces controlled curvature or movement, allowing the material to act as a temperature-sensitive element in switches, controls, indicators, compensators and protective devices.
Specification and product form
ASTM B388 covers thermostat metal sheet and strip used in devices for controlling, compensating or indicating temperature. ASTM B753 addresses component alloys used to manufacture bonded thermostat metal strip. The purchaser should identify the required type designation and performance rather than ordering only a generic "bimetal".
Information required for a quote
Send the type or component-alloy designation, governing specification and revision, total thickness, individual layer requirements if controlled, width, length or coil data, quantity, operating-temperature range, required curvature or deflection response, tolerances, surface condition and certification.
