CuMg UHC
Reducing costs and increasing rail capacity, this alloy offers 85% conductivity while maintaining the required tensile strengths.
CuMg
Copper Magnesium has the highest tensile strength when compared to other alloys, making it the perfect alloy for contact wire in high-speed lines with speeds well above 300km/h.
CuAg
Ideal for contact wires in high frequency, conventional railway lines with speeds of up to 250km/h.
CuSn
CuSn is used in the contact wires for both conventional and high-speed railway lines, allowing speeds above 300km/h.
CuCd
Copper Cadmium combines high strength with good conductivity. It is highly resistant to the frequent vibrations dropper wires need to withstand.
Cu ETP
Copper ETP is still the most universal metal but is increasingly being replaced by alloys with superior characteristics.
