The thermal conductivity of GRCop-42 is compared with those of four other materials--GRCop-84, NARloy-Z, AMZIRC, and pure copper. The GRCop-42 thermal conductivity at room temperature is 344 W/m·K in compared to 280 W/m·K for GRCop-84, 296 W/m·K for NARloy-Z, 380 W/m·K for AMZIRC, and 396 W/m·K for pure copper. The relative ranking remains the same up to 1000 °C, although the thermal conductivity for NARloy-Z becomes close to that of GRCop-42 around 500 °C.
