This British Standard specifies requirements for aluminium strip with drawn or rolled edges for electrical purposes, including chemical composition, mechanical properties, and electrical resistivity. It is applicable mainly to material of square or rectangular cross section with radiused corners. Such a material is normally available with a width/thickness ratio up to 6. Strip with greater width/thickness ratios may be supplied by arrangement.
Sizes greater than 20 mm in width may not be available in the H8 condition.
