Copper, Brass & Bronze Wire

Metal Associates has established relationships with wire manufacturers that custom draws round, flat, square, and shaped wire to your exact specifications. Our products meet the needs of various industries, including electronics and microwave technology. We have a team of experts that can assist with your project requirements.

What can Metal Associates do for you? Apart from having a wide range of wire products including Copper, Brass, and Bronze wire we offer services such as re-rolling, leveling, and slitting. We go beyond delivering, meeting the highest standards in every project.

Metal Associates also provides various alloys, such as copper, brass, bronze, beryllium copper, nickel, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and more. All our wires have come through tempering processes. We provide plating in various products such as cadmium, silver, tin, gold (and more) or anodized.

Copper Wire

Corrosion and wire resistance are important factors when producing wire that needs to withstand harsh conditions. Copper wires are known for their electric and thermal conductivity and are corrosion and wear-resistant, cost effective and easy to maintain. Because of its ductility and malleability, copper can be formed into different shapes. An added quality is that copper is environmentally friendly because it can be recycled.

Brass Wire

Brass wire is the perfect material to use when manufacturing electrical components due to the fact that it is corrosion resistant and has conductive properties. These conductive properties come from the copper and zinc composition of brass wire. Because of its durability, these wires are used for electrical connectors. The lightweight and malleable brass strips are excellent to use in small diameter applications. The brass wire can be cut in any length, dimensions, or shapes.

Bronze Wire

Bronze is a composition of copper and tin that is strong, corrosion and fatigue resistant, and withstands harsh conditions. The electronic industry uses bronze wire in numerous applications because it is an excellent conductor of heat and current. Bronze coils have become a major role player in the automotive manufacturing and marine technology industries due to its resistance to fatigue when placed under stress and high-pressure conditions.

Benefits and Applications of Wire Products

Every application has its unique specifications and requirements, from metal choice, size, length, kind of tempering, etc. Many projects may include several different combinations of wiring and electrical components.

Copper Wire

Because current flows easily through copper with little resistance and no energy loss it is used in main cables, underground cables, and in houses. Tall buildings use copper strips as lightning conductors. Copper wire, wound into coils, produces magnetic fields and is used in applications to generate electricity.

Brass Wire

Brass provides cost-effective solutions. The wire can be drawn into very thin wires and has little resistance to current. It is ideal for industrial projects such as cables, long-distance power supply, as well as underground trains. The brass wire can be flat or rounded and is annealed.

Bronze Wire

Bronze, like copper and brass, is a good conductor of current and heat and is ideal for electronic parts. It has become popular since the rise of electric cars. For many years bronze wire and other bronze parts have been used in boats, jet skis, etc.

Aluminum Wire

Aluminum is used for wiring due to its ratio to light weight conductivity. Aluminum is preferred to copper in applications of overhead power lines. Airplanes are also wired with aluminum wiring.

Beryllium Copper Wire

This product is also known as spring copper or beryllium bronze. Because of its strength, as well as it's non-magnetic and non-sparking qualities, it is excellent for metalworking. Beryllium copper is used for various parts of the aerospace industry.
