From Materials To Manufacturing Processes: How The Brass Inner Cap Of New Energy Vehicle Fuses Safeguards Battery Safety

Jul 14, 2025

In the current era of rapid development of new energy vehicles, battery safety is undoubtedly the top priority. As a crucial component of the battery protection system, the brass inner cap of new energy vehicle fuse plays a vital role in quickly disconnecting the circuit and preventing overcurrent and overheating during abnormal conditions. This critical component, though compact in size, performs indispensable functions for battery safety through its precision-engineered thermal and electrical properties.

Core Material: Safety Genes of Brass Alloys​

 

The brass inner cap of new energy vehicle fuse is based on a specially formulated brass alloy, with copper accounting for approximately 60%-70% to ensure excellent conductivity. The precise proportion of zinc enhances structural strength and corrosion resistance. This alloy maintains stable performance in environments ranging from -40℃ to 120℃, and can resist erosion from electrolyte vapor in the battery compartment, laying the foundation for safety protection.

 

Precision Manufacturing: Safety Assurance through Millimeter-Level Craftsmanship​

 

Using cold forging forming technology, the dimensional tolerance of the inner cap is controlled within ±0.02mm to ensure a tight fit with the fuse housing. The surface undergoes electrolytic polishing, with a roughness of Ra≤0.8μm, reducing contact resistance. Laser welding technology achieves seamless connection with the fuse element, with a weld strength of over 150N, resisting continuous vehicle vibration.

Functional Adaptation: Safety Collaboration with Battery Systems

 

The brass fuse terminal housing for NEV applications incorporates an innovative annular groove design that forms a labyrinth seal with the fuse enclosure, achieving IP67-rated protection against dust and water ingress. With superior thermal conductivity (120W/m·K), this critical component efficiently dissipates arc-generated heat while working in tandem with the arc-extinguishing chamber to ensure ultra-fast circuit interruption, thereby effectively mitigating thermal runaway risks during battery overcurrent situations.
