In semi-concentric strands, the individual wires are subject to an exact positioning, yet without an additional core wire, which ensures an all-out uniform structure.
Applications
• Extrusion: thin-gauge coating with high-grade isolation materials
Particular benefits for our customers
• Uniform elongation of single wires
• Low tolerances, even in single wires (even outperforming ASTM)
Manufacturing range
• Materials: Cu-ETP1 and Cu-OF1
• Bare, tin-plated, nickel-plated, silver-plated
• Left-hand lay or right-hand lay
• Variation: soft annealed
• Single-wire diameter: ranging from Ø 0.05 mm to Ø 0.51 mm
• Cross-section: ranging from 0.03 mm2 to 16 mm2
Construction
The following strand constructions are possible, which depend upon the number of core wires:
2 core wires:
2 + (2 + 6) = 10 ends
2 + (2 + 6) + (2 + 6 + 6) = 24 ends …
2 + ∑n (2 + n * 6)
3 core wires:
3 + (3 + 6) = 12 ends
3 + (3 + 6) + (3 + 6 + 6) = 27 ends …
3 + ∑n (3 + n * 6)
4 core wires:
4 + (4 + 6) = 14 ends
4 + (4 + 6) + (4 + 6 + 6) = 30 ends …
4 + ∑n (4 + n * 6)
5 core wires:
5 + (5 + 6) = 16 ends
5 + (5 + 6) + (5 + 6 + 6) = 33 ends …
5 + ∑n (5 + n * 6)
