Copper cathodes are used in the manufacturing of continuous cast copper rods which are further used for the wire, cable and transformer industries. They are also used for the manufacturing of copper tubes for consumer durable goods and other applications in the form of alloys and sheets.

Copper wire rod is used as raw material for the manufacturing of electric wire and cables and is produced by continuous casting or oxygen-free continuous up-casting.

Copper wire is used in power generation, power transmission, power distribution, telecommunications, electronics circuitry, and countless types of electrical equipment.

Copper tube is one of the components that is needed in air conditioning and refrigerant system. The tube is used as a path for the refrigerant to flow between system components and to contain it from escaping to the atmosphere.

The air conditioning and refrigeration market is a growing and increasingly significant user of copper tube. Copper tubes and coils have been used for many years in all types of heat exchangers.

In fiber-optic communication, a single-mode optical fiber is an optical fiber designed to carry only a single mode of light - the transverse mode. It is is used for long-distance transmission.

Multi-mode optical fiber is a type of optical fiber mostly used for communication over short distances, such as within a building or on a campus. Multi-mode links can be used for data rates up to 100 GB/s. The outer cladding of these fibers needs better protection than metal wires.
