CCR (Continuous Cast and Rolled) wire rod is a high-purity copper or aluminium rod produced through the continuous casting and rolling process. Molten metal is continuously cast into a bar and immediately hot-rolled into wire rod form (typically 8mm diameter). This process ensures uniform grain structure and superior surface quality compared to traditional methods.

CCR wire rod prices are closely linked to LME copper/aluminium rates and fluctuate daily. The price includes LME base rate, conversion premium, and logistics.

The standard diameter for CCR copper wire rod is 8 mm, as per IS 12444 specifications. Coil weights typically range from 3 to 5 MT. The rod has a minimum purity of 99.97% copper (for copper CCR) with oxygen content below 400 ppm, ensuring excellent drawability for downstream wire manufacturing.

Leading CCR wire rod manufacturers in India include Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL), Hindalco (for aluminium CCR), Birla Copper (Dahej plant), and several private producers like Gem Cables. For copper CCR, Birla Copper and HCL are the dominant domestic suppliers.

CCR rod refers specifically to wire rod manufactured through the Continuous Casting and Rolling process (like Southwire or Properzi), offering superior quality with consistent diameter, better surface finish, and lower oxygen content. Generic wire rod may be produced through batch casting methods. CCR is the preferred feedstock for premium cable manufacturing.

CCR wire rod is the primary raw material for manufacturing electrical wires, power cables, telecommunications cables, magnet wires, and enamelled copper wires. It is also used in automotive wiring harnesses, transformer windings, and electronic connectors. The high purity and consistent quality make it essential for critical electrical applications.
