Buss Wire

Buss Wire

Our buss bar is a flexible, strong copper with a sheet of tin. This wire is suitable for overhead transportation, distribution applications, and can serve as a ground wire in electrical constructions. Buss Wire, on the other hand, is applied to uninsulated hook-ups and jumpers. The sheet of tin over the copper makes soldering the wire easier during connection. The tin melts marginally when the soldering iron is enforced, and this connects with the solder to model a single bond, immediately drying together. This buss wire is available in sizes 36 AWG to 6 AWG.
