| Decision | CCS narrow foil | copper foil | Acceptance basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Narrow section | Steel-core foil with a defined copper layer | Copper foil with a defined grade and temper | Specify total gauge, width and layer construction. |
| Slit edges | Check copper coverage and exposed steel along cut edges | Check burr, surface and edge condition | Agree edge inspection and exposure conditions for the intended assembly. |
| Forming and contact | Check springback, layer integrity and joint resistance | Check copper temper, forming and joint resistance | Use the actual bend radius and joining stack; a bare round-wire reference does not qualify foil. |
| Cost basis | Include slitting, edge treatment and accepted parts | Include copper gauge, slitting and accepted parts | Compare cost per accepted formed or joined part. |
