I haven't stripped one of the wires down to see personally, but it's in the description and the text that it is pure copper and not CCA.

It is pure copper. Also, please look closely at the picture. It is pretty clear.

It aint aluminum cuz it melted at around 300'F. Not lead, cuz toxic. My guess is some bismuth / antimony eutectic alloy - but have not tested. But the part came, and fixed my pressure cooker !

Not copper it's alumn with copper on it. but it does the job , actually if you check the overhead power by PG&E most of them are pure alumn and they are permanent this you only use in a few seconds so what's the concern of having pure copper if it will only drive the cost like 3x or more.

Aluminum cools better than copper/steel but generally costs a lot more and copper/steel is stronger. Originally I had an aluminum radiator from China but returned it because of manufacturing defects.

There is no doubt in my mind that it is copper. I've worked with copper wires all my life and I know it when I see it. You can purchase it with confidence.

Hello Hoosierdoodles,The cable has both aluminum and copper conductors. It's about 85-90% aluminum and the rest is copper.Thank you for your question.Taylor W.VIVO

I believe it is aluminum. That's one reason why I purchased it, and I assumed it was aluminum. It has been installed, and I can no longer easily check to make sure it was as described.

When I purchased this wire, I read a lot of reviews, and some of these reviews contained claims that the wire was copper plated aluminum. I got this wire from SatMaximum. They claimed it to be copper in the ad, but I see that they must have started over with the ad, because there are only 3 reviews on this new ad, which makes no claim either way on its composition. Overall I am happy with the product, although it does appear to have a silvery core, which may be aluminum...

This is copper clad aluminum... Not quite as high quality. You may want to look at the Ethernet standers.. I believe it only goes about 300 ft.

I have the product. Like it but my copper pieces are for decoration only. Sorry. Call the company for an answer.

I threw away the packaging of this product already and don't remember what it says. It does say it is stainless steel on the description on the website. We have used it almost every day since we got it in January and there is no corrosion (put through the dish washer as well). Also it feels heavy like stainless not aluminum. Hope that helps.

Hi Venkat, delivery note from the vendor said copper was recycled from some old electricity wires. Regards, Jan

It is copper, but seems to be much thinner than my older cuisinart copper pieces. Spots much easier, needs more attention from "bar keeper's friend." Not close to my Mauviel pieces!

Coleman's website does indeed say copper equivalent for "cable gauge." It also says CCA for "conductor stranding," which stands for copper clad aluminum. It is an aluminum wire with a copper outer layer.

It's not ceramic and it is far better than any "teflon" like surface. I can't swear it is hard-anodized aluminum but I think it is. The description here on the product shows Hard Anodized and they would not risk false advertising, so I am certain it really is. I only know it is excellent. Not quite as slick as ceramic products, but still, excellent.

The product description states "aluminum encapsulated base," and aluminum is not magnetic.
