Why Silver Copper Wire is Preferred Over Other Forms?

Copper wires come in many forms and shapes and are used in innumerable ways in our daily lives.   The most widely used copper wires are bare copper wire, tin coated copper wire, tinsel copper wires, silver copper wires, nickel copper wires and fibre glass wires. You can find them in strips and cables too. Silver is the best conductor of electricity but because of its high costs it is not viable to use it in appliances. Copper on the other hand is a flexible and affordable alternative. It is strong and durable and mixes well with many other metals.  The wire is also commonly known as silver plated copper wire.

Mixture of Silver and Copper: 

Silver plating is used over the copper wire to ensure it becomes more robust while keeping the cost low. The silver copper wire is small and light in weight but highly stable, reliable and lasting. The manufacturers mix the two metals and create a corrosion resistant product. They are made in different shapes and thicknesses and they can be customized and created as per the needs of the customer. Some of its features are its high strength, abrasion and corrosion resistivity, scratch proof, shiny and elegant finish. They are used in both commercial and residential appliances.

Benefits of Silver Plated Wires:

High level of performance: The biggest benefit of silver copper wire is that though it loses its shininess as it grows, its conductive nature towards electricity does not change. It still performs as good as a new wire. It is long lasting and the best type of copper wire.

Flexible Nature: The silver plated copper wire can withstand high energy doses with ease. It is shockproof and comes with high resistance in every way. The silver plated copper wire is available in different thicknesses and specifications. The silver used in the wires vary and are available with 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100 grams in every kg of the alloy. Users can ask for a different composition if they require.  The costs increase with the increase in silver quantity.

Applications:  They are vastly used in musical instruments, radio cabling and are available in different voltage ratings. They are applied as coloured wires, textile wires. in high frequency applications and micro cables.

Uses of Silver plated wire:

Silver copper wire is used by almost all the sectors like cabling companies, by the telecommunication industry, railways.  Copper in every form is otherwise also widely used in the aerospace industry in radars, transmission wires, cockpit channels, in the defence industry in making bullets, grenades, pharmaceutical industry for many health care products, telecommunication industry for telephone cables, radar systems etc.
 
Silver copper wire is also used by the jewellery manufacturers. There are several types of earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelets, body jewellery, brooches, fancy headgears, pendants, cuffs, handmade strings and many more similar areas where high quality well designed and colourful products are designed.

The manufacturers are committed to offer high quality products matching international standards. They release the products after conducting rigorous tests to ensure quality and security.
