Application
Application
1.Communication: Coaxial cable inner conductor, antenna, feeder.
2.Electricity: Grounding/lightning protection wires, overhead cables, power fittings.
3.Electronics: RF cable, headphone cable, anti-theft cable.
Applicable Standards
ASTM B228
Common Specifications
Diameter: 0.08 mm -6.0 mm.
Conductivity levels: 21%, 30%, 40% IACS.
Status: Soft (annealed), Hard.
Construction
- Core: High strength steel (low carbon steel), providing tensile strength.
- Outer layer: Electrolytic copper (purity ≥ 99.9%), providing conductivity and corrosion resistance.
- Copper layer accounts for about 10% -20% of the diameter, metallurgical bonding, and is not easy to peel off.
- *We can design and produce according to client's requirement.
