C1100 copper strip is one of the most commonly used copper materials for transformer winding because it combines high conductivity, good formability and stable mechanical properties.
Compared with ordinary copper materials, C1100 copper strip provides better electrical performance and is suitable for transformer applications requiring high efficiency and reliable conductivity. Its excellent ductility also makes it suitable for coil winding, bending and insulation wrapping processes.
For transformer winding, the copper strip must have not only high conductivity but also stable thickness, clean surface and smooth edge. Poor edge quality may damage insulation materials during winding, while unstable thickness may affect coil size and transformer performance.
Our C1100 copper strip is manufactured and inspected to meet the strict requirements of transformer manufacturers.
C1100 copper strip for transformer is widely used in:
Transformer winding
Transformer coils
Dry-type transformers
Oil-immersed transformers
Distribution transformers
Power transformers
Electrical reactors
High-current conductive components
Busbar and electrical conductor parts
Industrial electrical equipment
Surface quality is one of the key requirements for transformer copper strip. Our C1100 copper strip is supplied with a smooth and clean surface suitable for transformer winding and insulation wrapping.
Surface quality requirements include:
Smooth and bright surface
No serious scratches
No cracks or peeling
No heavy oxidation
No visible oil stain
No surface contamination affecting insulation
Suitable for insulation paper or insulation film wrapping
The edge condition of copper strip is very important for transformer winding. Burrs or sharp edges may damage insulation paper, insulation film or other insulating materials during winding.
We can provide different edge options:
Edge Type | Description |
Slit Edge | Standard edge after precision slitting |
Deburred Edge | Reduced burrs for safer winding |
Round Edge | Smooth rounded edge for better insulation protection |
Customized Edge | Produced according to customer technical requirements |
For transformer winding applications, deburred edge or round edge is recommended when higher insulation protection is required.
