What Is Dry Bright Wire?
Dry Bright Wire refers to:
-
Clean, uncoated copper wire
-
Minimum 1mm thickness
-
Completely stripped of insulation
-
Free from paint, solder or lacquer
-
Not burnt or overheated
-
Bright and shiny in appearance
To qualify for Dry Bright pricing, the copper must be at least 99% pure and free from contamination.
If insulation has been removed by burning, it will not qualify as Dry Bright and will be graded lower.
