Bare Copper bare8str7sdmr 8 Awg 7-strand Tinned Copper Wire

Product Description

The BARE COPPER bare8str7sdmr is a 8 AWG, 7-strand soft drawn tinned copper wire sold in cut-to-length format. The tinned copper construction resists oxidation and corrosion, making it well suited for grounding, bonding, and bare conductor applications across electrical and low-voltage systems. The 7-strand configuration provides greater flexibility than solid conductors, easing routing through conduit and around obstacles in tight installation environments. Licensed electricians and experienced installers typically handle bare conductor work in both residential and commercial settings.

This cut-to-length wire is appropriate for grounding electrode conductors, equipment bonding jumpers, and general bare copper wiring applications. The soft drawn temper allows the wire to be formed and terminated without cracking or work-hardening, which is useful in panel work, service entrances, and outdoor bonding runs. Because it is sold cut to length, installers can order the exact footage needed for a specific job rather than committing to a full spool.

Key Features

• 8 AWG conductor size for general grounding and bonding applications
• 7-strand construction improves flexibility compared to solid wire
• Soft drawn temper allows easier forming and termination at lugs and connectors
• Tinned coating provides corrosion resistance and eases soldering where required
• Cut-to-length format reduces material waste on the job

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose bare tinned copper conductor suitable for grounding, bonding, and bare wire installations in standard electrical systems.

Installation Notes

Bare copper grounding and bonding conductors must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. Disconnect and lock out all power sources before making any connections to grounding or bonding systems. Use listed lugs, clamps, or compression connectors rated for the conductor size to ensure proper termination. Do not substitute bare conductors where insulated conductors are required by code.
