1. Cost-Effectiveness and Theft Deterrence
Copper-bonded steel is significantly less costly than solid copper, thanks to reduced copper usage combined with enduring performance.
Moreover, because copper recovery is impractical, these materials have low scrap value, which helps deter theft.
2. Lightweight and Easier Handling
With a robust steel core and lighter overall weight, copper-bonded steel flat bars are easier to transport, handle, and install—lowering shipping and labor costs while offering higher break-load capacity than pure copper.
3. Versatile Applications Across Industries
These flat bars are widely used in:
Grounding systems (e.g., connection to ground rods, substation earthing grids)
Lightning protection systems (down-conductors, earthing)
Communication and power infrastructure, antennas, grounding of electronic equipment like computers
