Here’s everything you need to know about copper wires!

During our school times, we have studied about a lot of metals that are used for various purposes. Copper is among them. Copper, as we all know is a soft, ductile, and a malleable metal. It has a high electrical and thermal conductivity and we know it is highly used as a conductor of heat and electricity. Also, it is used as a building material, and sometimes as a constituent of various metal alloys. But is that all? Of course, not. So, let us understand it more.


Why is copper used in electricity wiring?

Copper has incomparable current carrying capacity which has set high standards of conductivity. Due to its high conductivity and efficiency compared to other metals, it is not only used in electricity wiring, but has also become an international standard to which other metals are compared.

What are the main uses of copper wires?

Copper, as said above, has excellent conductivity power and thus is highly used in electrical motors and generators, for electrical wiring, and in electronics such as Televisions, Radio sets, air-conditioners, vehicle radiators and home heating systems, etc. In other words, Copper wires are mainly used in power transmission, power generation, power distribution, electronic circuitry and telecommunications.

What are the properties of copper wires?

Copper wires have some great unsurpassed properties that are rarely found in other metals and thus these are highly used. It includes, tensile strength, ductility, creep resistance, corrosion resistance, coefficient of thermal extension, thermal conductivity, ease of installation and solderability, etc.


Tasks related to installation of wires and dealing with other repairing and construction work for electronics, are best done by the experts, isn’t it? But finding the expert and the best possible way to get things done, is certainly your job. In such a competitive world, the numerous companies out there will try to woo you with some offers, great deals (or at least will seem like one), or maybe discounts, etc. but which out them are real? Don’t worry Ganpati Engineering is one place where you’ll get it all.

Ganpati Engineering Industries, running since 1977, is a trusted stranded copper wire Supplier. Their heavy range of products like the Bare Bunched Copper wires, Bare Copper Wires, Silver Branded Wire, Braided Copper Wire, Tinsel Wires, Tin Coated Copper Wires, etc. has made them a leading copper wire manufacturer in the industry.
