This alloy will provide special characteristics to the conductors creating a niche market for the company. AL59 Alloy Conductors are used in power transmission and distribution lines for a wide voltage range (low to ultra-high voltage) and due to their high corrosion resistance making them very suitable particularly for deployment in Transmission & Distribution at Coastal regions. Manufacturers can now procure NALCO’s AL-59 Aluminium Alloy Ingot and use it as a feed-stock for manufacturing AL-59 conductor.

The product was launched by NALCO’s Director (Commercial) Sadshiv Samantray on Thursday in presence of the first customer and senior Officials of NALCO’s Smelter & Power complex.
