Bare Copper Products

Stranded conductor is normally used in electrical applications where some degree of flexing is encountered either in installation or service. An application with a greater amount of expected service flexing should use a conductor with a larger number of wires and smaller individual wire diameter to make up a given conductor size as compared to a lesser flexing application.

Some typical applications of bare round copper wire are for grounding wires, conductors for building wire, telecommunications cables and for subsequent fabrication into metallic coated and stranded conductors, redrawing to smaller sizes and a multitude of mechanical forming operations.
