Explosion-Proof Class5 Aluminium Alloy Wire Al 8176 Wire for Oilfield Cables (ATEX Cat. 3 Zone 1)

Product Description

Product Description

Aluminium Alloy Wire

A high-performance conductive material engineered for superior mechanical strength and lightweight properties. Made from precision-drawn AA-8000 series aluminium alloys, this wire combines 60% IACS conductivity with tensile strengths up to 240 MPa, outperforming traditional pure aluminium conductors. Ideal for overhead power transmission lines, automotive harnesses, and aerospace applications where weight reduction is critical.

Key Features:

• Lightweight Design: 30% lighter than copper equivalents, reducing structural load in long-span installations.
• Corrosion Resistance: Anodized surface treatment withstands harsh environments (salt spray, humidity).
• Flexible Processing: Available in diameters 0.5mm-10mm (ASTM B230/B231 compliant).
• Cost Efficiency: 40% lower material cost vs. copper while maintaining 90% conductivity.

  Key Differences Between Class 2 & Class 5

• Mechanical Properties

  • Class 2: Higher ductility, lower strength (suitable for bending/flexible use).
  • Class 5: Higher tensile strength, lower elongation (ideal for load-bearing applications).

• Conductivity Trade-offs

  • Class 2 prioritizes conductivity (e.g., 1370 alloy for low-resistance windings).
  • Class 5 sacrifices some conductivity for mechanical robustness (e.g., 8030 for overhead lines).

• Processing

  • Class 2: Fully annealed (O temper) for maximum flexibility.
  • Class 5: Cold-worked (H temper) with strain hardening.
