Plated conductors / CATALOG REFERENCE
Tinned stranded copper wire
Tinned stranded copper wire is a historical plated-wire catalog reference. Identify the substrate, construction and surface as separate parts of the specification; the source notes below explain any conflicting table or unit labels.
Historical record · current specification and availability require confirmation.
SOURCE DETAILS
What the catalog identifies
The following labels come from the historical General Clad record. Read them with the qualification notes below.
| Catalog reference | Tinned stranded copper wire |
|---|---|
| Substrate named in the source | Copper named in heading; body Material row says Tin-copper alloy 0.3%; basis unresolved |
| Form named in the source | stranded wire (heading; table 7 wires) |
| Surface named in the source | tin implied by heading; body Material Tin-copper alloy 0.3% is not a confirmed coating composition |
| Historical table: wire count | 7 — confirm the finished construction |
| Historical table: plating layer | ≥0.2 — applicability and current tolerance need review |
Source notes for this reference
- Material row 'Tin-copper alloy 0.3%' differs from generic title; 0.3% basis and whether alloy fraction/coating designation are unstated.
- Construction headers include '7/' under diameter(mm); preserve notation rather than treating full construction as a diameter.
- Resistance values have no unit.
- Conductivity label is % only, not IACS.
- Do not infer current tin-plated copper SKU from alloy table or assert precise 0.3% composition basis.
- This record identifies a historical catalog entry. Current availability, approved dimensions, performance and certification are not established by the old page.
Official source body reviewed 3 October 2026. A source observation is not an approved current specification.
