Hot-rolled steel coil SAE 1010

Description

1. Product Overview
Our oxygen-free copper wire rods are precision-engineered for high-conductivity electrical applications, primarily serving the cable and transformer industries. The key value proposition lies in exceptional purity and uniform drawability, directly reducing breakage rates during fine wire drawing. Strategically, securing a reliable supply of this grade is critical to mitigating input cost volatility and maintaining throughput in global renewable energy and grid infrastructure projects.

2. Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Chemical composition: 99.99% Cu min, oxygen content ≤ 10 ppm

• Purity level: CU-CATH-1 equivalent (ASTM B49 / EN 13601)

• Physical characteristics: 8 mm diameter rod, continuous milled coil, bright annealed surface, density 8.93 g/cm³

• Packaging: Moisture-sealed wooden pallet coils, net weight 4–5 MT per coil; or steel reels per request

• Shelf life: 12 months in original, dry, acid-free storage

3. Core Industrial Applications

• Primary industries: Power cable manufacturing, automotive wiring harnesses, winding wire (enameled/magnet wire), and renewable energy components (solar & wind)

• Operational use cases: High-speed continuous drawing to 0.05 mm fine wire; stranding for low- and medium-voltage power cables

• Performance advantage: Reduced annealing frequency and 22% fewer wire breaks vs. standard ETP rods, enabling faster line speeds and lower scrap rates

4. Competitive Advantages
