Copper finds its extensive use in wiring purposes as copper is a very good conductor of heat and electricity. Its remarkable property of good ductility and malleability causes it to be drawn into very thin wires and copper foils. Being extensively available in the earth’s crust and its recycling nature copper is one of the most affordable and reliable solution for all personal and industrial wiring needs. Some of the other remarkable properties of copper which are favorable for its use as wires are its high melting point, resistance to corrosion, high tensile strength and high ductility. Although aluminum competes with the copper in electrical conductivity but aluminum has only 61 percent of the conductivity of copper and usually thick aluminum wires are needed for conducting current which may easily catch fire on overheating resulting in fire accidents. Hence copper emerges as the number one choice.
Braided copper wires are extensively used as copper flexible connectors which connect one part of the electrical appliance with the other. These wires are also extensively used in railways and locomotives, transformers, control switches, relay gears, power meters, turbine connectors, transformers etc. Copper flexible connectors as manufactured by the electrical wire manufacturers and exporters of India are known for their quality, durability, high tensile strength and low electrical resistivity.
Braided wires need to be coated by tin which acts as insulating material. Tin coating enhances the life of the copper wire as the coating saves the wire to succumb under mounting pressure when used in underground cables. Before the coating of tin on the copper wire to produce tinned braided wire the electrolytic copper wire is first drawn into specified size and then annealed to make the wire more flexible and tensile. Then the tin coating is done through either the hot dip process or the electrolytic process. In the hot dip process the annealed wires are passed through the electrical pot containing molten tin while in the electrolytic process copper wires are put in the chemical tank and the electric current is passed through the tin slab which then helps in copper wire getting evenly coated by tin.
The tinned braided wire is commonly used in cables, industrial machines, heaters, high temperature instruments, long distance power transmission and in other electrical appliances. The clients can easily avail either the rounded or flat braided copper wires of specified shape and sizes as per their personal or commercial needs and applications. Each and every wire manufactured by Indian electrical wires manufacturers and exporters pass under the strict quality control tests to ascertain that the clients get the super quality products on the most competitive prices. The electrical wires manufacturers and exporters in India thus with their wide variety of copper and aluminum products cater to the needs and requirements of large number of industries as well as individuals.
