ASTM B228 Copper Clad Steel Wire Feature
- Strength Surpassing Copper
- The steel core within CCS wire creates a robust conductor with mechanical damage resistance far exceeding that of solid copper wire. Its exceptional mechanical strength makes CCS wire less prone to damage during installation and more resistant to fatigue damage caused by vibration or bending.
- Easy Installation
- CCS conductors and stranded wires feature a specially designed low-carbon steel core that maintains high strength while achieving maximum flexibility. Manufactured through a unique heat treatment process, these wires exhibit exceptional ductility, enabling effortless installation without specialized tools. For equivalent specifications, CCS conductors and stranded wires are lighter than solid copper wires.
- Anti-Theft Properties
- The permanent bonding of copper cladding to the steel core renders CCS cable scrap virtually worthless, effectively deterring theft and safeguarding grounding system integrity.
- Corrosion Resistance
- CCS cables combine the corrosion resistance of copper with the high strength of steel.
