Aluminum Clad Steel Wire (ACS), also known as Aluminum-Clad Steel Conductor Wire ou ACS Wire, is a high-performance bimetallic wire consisting of a high-strength steel core metallurgically bonded with a thick, uniform layer of aluminum. This advanced cladding technology combines the superior tensile strength and fatigue resistance of steel with the excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance of aluminum, making it the ideal core material for ACSR/AW conductors, grounding wires, and optical fiber composite overhead ground wires (OPGW).
As a trusted manufacturer with over 30 years of experience in producing aluminum clad steel wire, RLB delivers consistent quality, precise dimensional control, and outstanding long-term performance for demanding overhead transmission applications.
Key Applications
Aluminum Clad Steel Wire is widely used in:
- ACSR/AW (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced with Aluminum-Clad Steel) conductors for long-span high-voltage transmission lines
- Overhead grounding conductors and earth wires
- Optical Fiber Composite Overhead Ground Wire (OPGW) as the central strength member
- Extra-high-voltage (EHV) and ultra-high-voltage (UHV) overhead lines requiring high tensile strength and low sag
Its excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties make it particularly suitable for coastal, industrial, high-pollution, and heavy-loading environments.
