Aluminum-clad steel stranded wire can be used for ground wire and conductor of overhead power line, and also can be used for electrified railway cable. It is a cable product with aluminum – clad steel wire twisted. According to the conductivity of the aluminum-clad steel strand is divided into: 20AC, 23AC, 27AC, 30AC, 33AC, 40AC six groups, its corresponding conductivity is 20.3%, 23%, 27%, 30%, 33% and 40% IACS. Aluminum clad steel wire has a relatively large range of size and performance can be adjusted, the advantage in strength is easier to play, good heat resistance, good corrosion resistance and so on.
Construction:
Aluminum clad steel strand is composed of stranded aluminum clad steel wires.
Application:
1. It is composed of bare, hard-drawn, round, aluminum-clad steel wire.
2. It is widely used in overhead conductor ACSR/AW, grounding conductor and optical fiber ground wire ( OPGW ).
Advantage：
☀ 30 years manufacturing and exporting experience.
☀ Various conductivity, such as 14%, 20.3%, 23%, 27%,30%,35%, 40%.
☀ Diameter from 1.85mm to 4.77mm.
☀ Well appearance, higher tensile strength and steady quality.
☀ Packing method and size can be customized.
