Magnet Strip

Sheet or foil aluminum (either bare or insulated) used as the conductor in electric windings. The largest application has been in distribution transformers. There has also been some use in small coils for devices such as relays and automobile horns. Most use has been in the form of bare aluminum strip with shaped, rounded or contoured edges. Coated strip (of both aluminum and copper, which is also used) has also been developed.
