Copperclad Steel Wire
2022-07-26
AFL's Copperclad Steel Wire is the ideal solution for grounding wire for power type applications. Composed of a steel core with coppercladding, the steel wire gives the wire its strength and the consistent layer of copper provides electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion.
To manufacture Copperclad Steel Wire, carbon steel (low, high strength and extra high strength) is bonded with a uniform layer of oxygen-free coppercladding to achieve 30% and 40% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard) conductivities. The material is available in a single wire, 3, 7 and 19 cable strands with some sizes jacketed to give the wire a different appearance to copper
●Features
■ Demonstrates the same corrosion-resistant properties as copper while maintaining the high strength of steel
■ Reduces damage caused during installation or fatigue from vibration or bending
■ Special heat treat process results in a very malleable wire called Dead Soft Annealed (DSA) ■ Copper permanently bonded to the steel core prevents corrosive of the steel core.
■ Very little scrap value, discouraging theft and leaving the grounding system intact
■ Compliant with IEEE 80, ASTM B258, ASTM B910/B910M, ASTM B339, ASTM B227
