What Is Bare Copper Wire?

Bare copper wire is solid, uninsulated round copper conductor. It is the base conductor for cables and harnesses, for grounding and bonding, for overhead distribution lines, and the feedstock for stranded, parallel and enameled products. Jingda draws it from its own oxygen-free copper rod, so conductivity, surface quality and elongation are controlled from the melt onwards.

Drawn from our own rod

Jingda melts and casts its own oxygen-free copper rod and draws it on rod-breakdown and multi-wire lines from SAMP, Niehoff and Fridea. Keeping rod and wire under one roof removes a supply step and lets the drawing schedule, annealing and surface condition be matched to what the wire will be used for — a conductor that will be enameled has different surface requirements from one that will be stranded into a flexible cable.

What you get

  • Low resistivity — ≤ 0.01722 Ω·mm²/m at 20 °C for efficient transmission
  • High-purity copper with consistent thermal and electrical performance
  • High elongation, ≥ 25 % up to ≥ 32 %, so the wire survives downstream processing
  • Smooth, burr-free surface in a bright or sub-bright finish
  • Spools and baskets up to Ø 1000 mm and 800 kg for efficient logistics

Jingda Copper Conductor Range

Start from the form the conductor has to take. A solid round wire is the base product; stranding adds flexibility, parallel bonding adds current capacity in a flat profile, and rod is the feedstock for all of them.

Performance and Applications

Jingda bare copper wire is used in automotive wiring systems, in electrical grounding and bonding where a reliable path to earth is required, in overhead transmission and distribution lines, as the conductor in telecommunication cables, and in electronic components and circuits. Other constructions — different finishes, tolerances or packages — are produced on demand.

Ordering, Packaging and Delivery

Commercial termDetail
Minimum order quantityAgreed per diameter and surface finish. Sample and pilot-order quantities are agreed case by case.
Lead timeNormally within 30 days from order confirmation; stock sizes dispatch earlier where available.
IncotermsFOB by default; other Incoterms on request.
Quotation responseWithin 1 business day.
Packaging and shipment — bare copper wire

Wire is supplied on spools or in baskets of Ø 400, 630 or 1000 mm, carrying up to 100, 450 and 800 kg respectively depending on diameter. Single spools for samples or small orders are packed individually in a wooden case or on a pallet. Volume shipments use fumigation-free wooden pallets, with cartons or fibreboard collars protecting the packages and stretch film securing the load.

Maximum weights are nominal and depend on wire diameter. Exact package weight and pallet build are confirmed per order.

Frequently Asked Questions

What diameters and tolerances can Jingda supply?
The published range is 0.25 to 3.00 mm. Tolerance is ±0.004 mm from 0.25 to 0.60 mm, ±0.04 mm from 1.60 to 2.00 mm and ±0.05 mm from 2.00 to 3.00 mm. Other diameters and tighter tolerances are produced on demand — send the drawing and the technical team will confirm.
What is the difference between a bright and a sub-bright finish?
Both are clean, burr-free surfaces; the difference is the degree of surface reflectivity left by the drawing and annealing schedule. Bright finish is standard on the fine sizes up to 0.60 mm. Sub-bright is standard on the heavier sizes from 1.60 mm, where the wire is normally processed further.
Which standards do you produce to?
GB, IEC, DIN, ASTM and JIS, or to a customer drawing. Tell us which standard the receiving process is qualified against and the order will be produced and certified against it.
How is the wire packed and what are the maximum package weights?
Spools and baskets of Ø 400, 630 and 1000 mm are standard, carrying up to 100, 450 and 800 kg respectively depending on diameter. Packing can be adapted to your handling equipment.
Can Jingda supply tinned copper wire?
Yes. Jingda operates a Steuler tinning line, and tinned conductor is produced alongside bare. Specify the coating requirement with your enquiry and it will be quoted with the bare option.
Can we become a Jingda distributor or agent?
Yes. Jingda works with distributors and agents across Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Japan, and is open to new partners in markets where coverage can be strengthened. Send your company profile, the market and industries you serve, and the product families you want to carry, and the export team will follow up.
How does Jingda support customers after the order?
Jingda’s technical team supports specification alignment, incoming-inspection questions and problem analysis during qualification. Documentation including the data sheet and quality certificates is issued with the order, and production lots are traceable to the test records held in Jingda’s CNAS-accredited laboratories.
