VT machining offers CNC Waterjet Cutting for C102 Copper (UNS C10200 / OF / Cu-OF), typically supplied annealed or H02. Oxygen-free copper, slightly lower purity than C101.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Notes for C102 Copper
Waterjet cutting leaves C102 Copper with no heat-affected zone, which matters when later machining or welding follows.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of C102 Copper weighs about 0.89 kg.

Request a QuoteFrequently Asked Questions
Does CNC Waterjet Cutting C102 Copper require dedicated tooling?
Most C102 Copper cutting work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Waterjet Cutting on C102 Copper?
Laser cutting leaves C102 Copper with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Waterjet Cutting C102 Copper?
Achievable tolerances for C102 Copper cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Laser cutting holds contour tolerances to around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC Waterjet Cutting C102 Copper?
CNC Waterjet Cutting prototypes for C102 Copper can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.
What surface finish is achievable on C102 Copper with CNC Waterjet Cutting?
Laser cutting leaves a clean cut face on C102 Copper with a small heat-affected zone; most parts need little secondary finishing.
Can VT machining make custom C102 Copper parts to my drawing?
Yes. C102 Copper cutting is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
