0.1mm x 10mm Pure Nickel Strip for Battery Connection

0.1mm x 10mm Pure Nickel Strip for Battery Connection offers a high-quality, efficient solution for assembling small-to-medium lithium-ion battery packs, such as those utilizing 18650 or 21700 cells. Fabricated from 99.6% pure nickel, this strip delivers excellent electrical conductivity and minimizes the internal resistance of your finished pack. Its thinner gauge (0.1mm) and moderate width (10mm) make it particularly well-suited for applications where flexibility and lower current demands are primary concerns, ensuring easier welding and bending around tightly packed cells. Choose this pure nickel strip to maximize battery cell lifespan, minimize heat generation during operation, and achieve highly reliable connections in custom power projects.

Key Features:

• Ultra-High Purity Nickel: Contains ≥ 99.6% pure nickel, which drastically reduces resistance and enhances overall pack performance compared to nickel-plated steel.
• Optimized for Spot Welding: The pure nickel composition ensures clean, strong, and highly conductive welds, which is essential for battery safety and efficiency.
• Superior Flexibility: The 0.1mm thickness makes bending and routing the connections around complex cell arrangements simple.
• Corrosion Resistant: Nickel naturally resists rust and corrosion, providing long-term reliability for battery packs used in various environments.
• Balanced Current Handling: Perfectly sized for low-to-medium discharge rate battery packs where weight saving is a benefit.
