Properties

Application

Electrical wiring Marine installations Automotive wiring Solar energy systems Control panels Industrial machinery
Corrosion Resistance The tin coating protects the copper core from oxidation, moisture, and chemical exposure, making it ideal for humid, marine, and industrial environments.
High Conductivity Delivers excellent electrical performance with minimal power loss while maintaining stable current flow over long distances.
Extended Service Life The tin layer slows down copper degradation, extending the lifespan of the wire even under continuous electrical and mechanical stress.
Use in Multi Applications Suitable for marine, automotive, solar, control panels, and industrial machinery where reliability and durability are critical.
Solder-Friendly The tin surface allows fast, clean soldering with strong joint bonding and reduced oxidation during installation.
* Values are based on 200MPa as per BS EN 13602 * Upon the request the plating thickness
