Vertical copper-bonded forged rod with sealing-strengthening bush, Cu 0.250 mm
The 99.9% pure electrolytic copper bonded onto a drawn steel to a thickness of min 0.250 mm forms molecular and inseparable connection with the steel. The steel core has a high tensile strength of 600 N/mm2.
| Cat. no. | Diameter of rod mm | Length* m | Material |
|---|---|---|---|
| C0000172 | 14.2 | 1.2 | steel copper-bonded to thickness of 0.250 mm, sealing-strengthening steel bush |
| C0000175 | 14.2 | 1.5 | |
| C0000195 | 16.0 | 1.5 | |
| C0000185 | 17.2 | 1.5 |
* for special orders we supply different rod lengths up to 3 m
One end of the rod has decreased diameter, the other end has a hole which enables the connection between the rods to increase the length.
The connection of the rods is protected by sealing bush made of stainless steel which provides additional mechanical strength to the connection. Therefore there is no need to use the tip. Connection of the rods complies with the requirements of IEC/EN 62561-2 „Lightning protection components (LPSC). Requirements for conductors and earth electrodes”. To drive the rod into the ground, the driving stud and tup for mechanical driving or tup for hand driving must be used.
The sealing bush advantage:
- sealing the pin-feather key connection
- strengthening the mechanical connection
