Bimetal Rivet Contacts are designed to use mid to high volume requirements for heavy-duty applications. Its composite rivets are made by cold bonding a silver alloy or metal oxide contact face to a copper base in two fully-controlled, high force blows in a single operation.

Bimetallic lug is used to make connections with a cable and is fitted at the end of the cable. This lug is made of 99.9% purity copper and 99.5% purity aluminum. The barrel is friction welded to the palm so that the best possible transition between copper palm and aluminum barrel. To avoid oxidization of the aluminum barrels capped are greased.

Bimetallic steam traps operate on the same principle as the balanced-pressure steam trap. The mechanism in this trap is a bimetallic strip formed from two dissimilar metals that have very different coefficients of expansion. As the bimetallic strip is heated, the difference in the expansion rate of the metals causes the strip to bend. The trap is fabricated so that when the strip is heated to the steam's temperature there, is enough movement to close off the valve. The bimetallic thermostatic trap has a slow response to load conditions, requiring as much as 100°F of sub-cooling and is not self-adjusting to changes in inlet pressure. These traps are suited for superheated steam applications and situations where a great deal of condensate sub-cooling is required to prevent flashings in the return line. Normally these traps are applied to steam-tracing lines that can tolerate partial flooding.

Bimetallic Thermometer measures temperature by means of the differential thermal expansion of two metals. It is useful for alarm and over-temperature applications where extreme accuracy is not essential. It consists of two different metals (usually brass and iron) of different expansion coefficients rolled together, and usually formed into a spiral or helix. The bimetallic thermometer is usually the temperature-sensing part of the thermograph, an instrument that measures and records temperature. In a bimetallic thermometer differential expansion of bimetallic strips is used to indicate the temperature. It makes use of the coefficient of the linear expansion principle.

Bimetallic Thermometers are made by brazing two metal strips of different materials together at the ends. Bimetallic thermometers use the differences in thermal expansion properties of metals to provide temperature measurement capability. It is made of 304- stainless steel. It is used on storage tanks, bobtails and transports.
