‍Copperweld^® Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) Metal-Clad Cable helps crews keep pace by combining copper’s reliability with the lighter weight and flexibility of aluminum. The result is a conductor that electrical contractors say is faster and easier to install across multi-floor and large-scale commercial builds.

Faster pulls and smoother runs

Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable’s lighter weight and flexibility make wire pulls easier. On large commercial jobs, electricians often have to feed conductors through dozens of stud cutouts — sometimes hundreds of feet at a time or from one floor to the next. Copper’s heavier weight can cause snags or stalls midway, forcing crews to stop and restart the run.

Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable moves through those openings more easily, minimizing snags, saving effort, and reducing fatigue. Some contractors have reported faster installation times when switching to Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable — evidence that small differences in weight add up to real productivity gains.

Efficiency that compounds over time

Across hundreds of pulls, lighter weight translates to measurable time savings. Crews move more efficiently, complete more circuits per shift, and stay on schedule without fatigue.

On large commercial jobs, electricians in the field often report logging 10,000 to 20,000 steps a day. Over the course of a week, that adds up to many miles — which is why every pound saved matters. Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable lightens the load crews carry and keeps them working more efficiently day after day.

Those small time and energy savings accumulate across an entire project — improving productivity, helping maintain workflow, and keeping teams focused on quality instead of fighting the cable.

Lighter coils, easier handling

Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable’s bimetal design delivers major handling advantages before the first pull even begins. A lighter conductor means easier transport from the truck to the floor. With Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable, electricians can carry multiple coils at once without the strain of heavier copper cable, easing the workload of long days spent moving materials and setting up pulls — helping crews stay productive and efficient on the job.

Built for commercial scale

The advantages of Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable become even more apparent as projects get larger.

Commercial projects rely on larger conductors and longer runs than residential builds. Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable excels in these conditions — especially in sizes 8 AWG and above, where its lighter weight becomes even more noticeable.

Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable is also compatible with standard MC connectors and fittings, which means crews can keep using the same tools and methods they already trust — no adjustments, no learning curve, just faster progress on the job.

The smarter way to work

From lighter loads to smoother installation, Copperweld Metal-Clad Cable is engineered for one thing: efficiency in motion.

It’s a design backed by more than a century of American bimetals innovation — continuing Copperweld’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and forward thinking that continues to shape how the world is wired.‍
