Tinned Copper Wire vs Bare Capper wire

Tinned Copper Wire VS. Bare Capper wire
2
Copper wires that are available in the market
today are either bare wires, insulated with
nickel or tin or bunched copper wires. The bare
wires are rated under the regular bare 12 gauge
copper wire.
3
Bare copper is a great choice in industries
concerned with the manufacturing of electrical
equipment's and associated appliances and
products. Car and domestic appliances are all
driven by power connected by copper wires. Great
conductivity doubled by extremely good
anti-corrosion properties make copper wires made
in bare form best option to be used in internal
circuits as well as external relays used in
transformers and over-head transmission lines.
4
Bare copper wires are little susceptible to the
damp conditions as there is no insulation
protecting its outer surface. It can not be used
in places that are constantly dipped in fluid or
water. Oil sump tanks and marine machineries use
tinned wires. These tinned wires are usually
bunched or braided wires. Bare copper wires are
not considered for use in motors that are
constantly submerged under the oil sump tanks.
5
Tinned wires come into the picture where bare
wires leave. Tinned copper wires are usually
bundled in the forms of braids or bunches.
Tinned wires are manufactured by the process of
electroplating. Copper wires are coated with Tin
particles by electrolysis. The coating is uniform
and blends without leaving any chemical residue.
Tinned copper wires are used in specialty
appliances and high-grade engineering units. They
are less used with gold jewelry and cosmetic
surgery to fix bones and cartilages. Tinned wires
are used along with the nickel plated wires and
also Monel.

Tin is an ideal companion that can be used with
the copper wires. It boosts the properties of the
copper wires and helps them last ten to twenty
times longer in life. Tin does not corrode and
oxidize when exposed to rain. The electroplating
prevents the interior copper walls to retain
their properties even when the insulation is
tapered or broken from some part.
7
Tinned copper wires are priced higher than the
bare ones, but the investment is worth as they
are sure to sustain the device long. Tin plating
definitely increases the life expectancy of the
bare copper wires. In addition to the insulation,
it adds more grace to its appeal. Excellent
resistance to humidity is the best feature that
these tinned wires offer in comparison to others.
