An electrochemical cell (10), typically to a metal-air cell of the button-type, comprising an anode can (24) containing electrochemically active material (26), a cathode can (44) assembled to the anode can (24) and a seal (60) electrically insulating the two cans. The cathode can is made from a three layer diffusion annealed and tempered metal strip (114), the core layer (116) being steel, and the external layers being nickel (118); the cathode can has a wall thickness of 0.110 to 0.155mm. Said cathode can having a bottom, said inner and outer surfaces of said cathode can comprising first inner and first outer surfaces, second inner and second outer surfaces of said bottom corresponding with said first inner and first outer surfaces respectively, said second outer surfaces having a substantially flat portion extending radially outwardly to a first outer perimeter of said second outer surface. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> |
