T4 Rod refers to a type of aluminum rod that has been treated to improve its strength and hardness. The "T4" indicates a specific heat treatment process that makes the aluminum stronger while maintaining its light weight. These rods are commonly used in electrical conductors and other applications where a strong, durable material is needed.`
Pure aluminum wire rods, commonly referred to as EC-grade aluminum, are composed of aluminum with a minimum purity of 99.5%. This high level of purity ensures that the material retains its intrinsic properties, most notably its exceptional electrical and thermal conductivity. Typically, pure aluminum exhibits an electrical conductivity of approximately 61% of the International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS), positioning it as a superior conductor relative to many other metals.
An AL59 Rod is a type of aluminum rod made from an alloy that has 59% conductivity. It is used in electrical cables and systems because it can carry electricity efficiently while being lightweight and durable. The AL59 rod is stronger than regular aluminum, making it ideal for power lines and other applications where both strength and good electrical performance are needed.
