A copper surface.
A core of strength.
CCS brings a copper outer layer and a steel core into one conductor. The right specification balances electrical performance with mechanical demands.
Copper outer layer
Specify conductivity and copper-layer integrity for the intended service.
Steel core
Select strength and temper to suit processing, handling and installation.
One verified specification
Review resistance, dimensions and connections together before qualification.
02 / APPLICATIONS
