Application
Aluminum-Clad Steel Strand is primarily used in the guying, and shielding of overhead transmission and distribution lines.

Construction
Each steel wire is clad with a layer of aluminum. The cladding has a continuous, strong metallic bond to the steel core ensuring
optimal performance in corrosive environments.

Standards
Conforms to ASTM B 416-98.
