aluminium ec rods

Our Aluminium EC (Electrical Conductor) Grade Rods are one of the preferred types in electrical industries. Owing to excellent characteristics of our aluminium, they are predominantly used in overhead power transmission and distribution cables.

With purity of 99.5% aluminium (minimum), our Aluminium EC Grade Rod is the preferred choice and alternative to copper due to its high conductivity, lightweight characteristic, excellent form, corrosion resistance and superb malleability to fit a wide range of processing.

A detailed specification of our Aluminium EC Grade Rod is as follows:
