Copper and its Countless Uses

As copper wire comes with very high conductivity, copper wire and its by-products have innumerable uses across various industries. Copper wire when coated with tin makes tin copper wire which is majorly used in form of power cables for overhead power transmission in subways, heavy and light transportation system etc. The wires being used as power cables should posses certain striking qualities like sustainability to high temperature, resistance to oxidation, easy in soldering, conductivity even without oxygen. As a result copper wires has to undergo special process of electroplating with metal tin in order to form tin copper wire. In electroplating process of tin coating, the copper wire is made passed through a chemical tray. Copper wire which is a result of electroplating tin coating is assumed to be the purest form of copper wire as compared to any other process.

Such copper wire when produced is used for house wiring, control cable and making many other similar electrical and electronic uses. Such electroplated tin copper wire is also used in making equipments related to boating as well as marine projects.

Bare copper wire or tin copper wire is also used for making another kind of wire, glass wire. As we know that electrical equipments like alignment heater, submersible motor, and electric motor require resistance to high temperature, therefore these electrical appliances use glass wire.

The use of metal copper is not limited to electronic or electrical appliances only. It should be noted that enameled copper wire is also used as jewellery. Copper wire is also plated by silver, gold and many other metals. Silver copper wire is used for replacing sterling silver as jewelry. Various jewelry manufacturers are using such silver plated copper wires for making various jewellery and ornaments. Such wires can be easily used in making ornaments as they are resistant to tarnishing.

There are variety of copper wire manufacturers and suppliers which are available online also both for retail and wholesale use. One can easily view the display menu of such manufacturer’s website and can even do online shopping. The websites of recognized vendors provide the wide range of varieties of copper wire and other metals also. The users do purchase and sale according to their demand and usage.

Therefore, after taking sincere look at the uses of variety of copper wire available with market vendors we can’t overlook the daily and professional uses of copper wire.
