The armor wires are high tensile, Galvanized Extra Improved Plow Steel (GEIPS), and coated with anti-corrosion compound for protection during shipping and storing. Wires are preformed and cables are post-tensioned.

The Nickel coated copper wires are made of ASTM3555 Class 10 and they are used to increase corrosion protection conductors.
Core assembly – Copper strand consists of six wires around one center wire and are “water blocked” to reduce water and gas migration. Conductor resistance is measured at 68 deg. F.
The temperature rating assumes a normal gradient for both temperature and weight.
Center conductor construction is 6x0.0142” with a non-conductive center member. The typical resistance is reduced by approximately 5 to 10% and the capacitance is increased by approximately 5 to 10% in comparison to the outer conductors.
All values shown are nominal or typical values.
