AL9655 Aluminum Strip for Cable Sheathing

Aluminium Strip for Cable Sheathing Description

The Aluminium Strip for Cable Sheathing is fabricated from 1145 and 8011 aluminium alloys, combining the high conductivity of commercially pure aluminium with improved formability. The foil form factor ensures optimal flexibility for cable wrapping while providing a physical barrier against environmental factors. Its controlled thickness and uniform surface finish contribute to reduced electrical interference and enhanced durability in cable assemblies.

Aluminium Strip for Cable Sheathing Applications

Electrical Installations
- Used as external sheathing in cable assemblies to achieve effective electrical insulation by leveraging aluminium's corrosion resistance and ductility.

Industrial Systems
- Applied as a protective layer in industrial cable harnesses to mitigate physical damage and minimise signal interference through its uniform foil structure.

Aluminium Strip for Cable Sheathing Packing

The product is packaged in anti-static, moisture-resistant bags and then box-packed in cushioned cartons to prevent physical and environmental damage. Storage instructions recommend a cool, dry area to ensure foil integrity. Custom packaging options, including size-specific cut-to-length orders and sealed containers, are available to address specific transportation and handling requirements.
