Alcan's Aluminum Conductor Alloy Reinforced (ACAR) cable has aluminum 1350 H-19 wires concentrically stranded around a 6201-T81 aluminum alloy core.  Typically, the 6201 is the conductor core, but in certain designs, the 1350 H-19 and the 6201-T81 wires may be stranded in the same layer.

Alcan's ACAR cable meets or exceeds industry requirements per ASTM specifications B-230, B-398 and B-524.

Alcan's Aluminum Conductor Alloy Reinforced (ACAR) is an excellent conductor choice where current carrying capacity, higher strength and a lower conductor weight are critical to the line design.
