At the same time, factors such as the load-bearing capacity, storage and transportation conditions of the wire reel need to be considered to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the wire. |
| Surface treatment of aluminum alloy wire |
Coated with industrial white oil. The surface of the high-strength aluminum alloy wire produced by Chalco is coated with industrial white oil, which is a special lubricant, which is usually used to reduce surface friction and prevent adhesion between wires. Coating industrial white oil can improve the surface quality of the aluminum alloy wire, make the surface smooth, reduce friction with the surrounding environment, and improve the smoothness of the wire. This is especially important for applications such as overhead stranded wires as it reduces the risk of back wires and keeps the wire in good condition. |
