Are these made of copper wire?

Can't say for certain. The manufacturer's web site does not state the metal used for the wires. From the cord I have, it seems heavy enough to have been made of copper -- and looking at the semi-translucent ends -- it looks like the wires are copper. But I can't say so with absolute certainty. I note that the manufacturer's web site shows approval by a huge number of standards organizations -- so if you look up the UL specs, it may state the wire used. Of course, you can contact the manufacturer (Conntek) and ask them...

Unsure, they are stainless and attached however the copper layer is only in the base.

Wires have all been made of copper for the past 50-60 years. Prior to that there have been different mixtures involving aluminum but there's no such thing as being incompatible just because its a different metal.

Unusual question, but yes. It is wire. If your connections match voltage and current will flow.

These cables are made of copper-coated aluminum wire. No question about it. What is worse, I think, is that the crimps in the clamp handles have no strain reliefs. Since aluminum does not handle repeated flexing, I would expect to see eventual failures at the crimps. I have no doubt this product will perform well with limited use, but I would not buy it if you expect to use it frequently.

According to AntaresPro.com, these are copper clad aluminum; other sites turn up in google search saying it is a hybrid metal to optimize conductivity--meaning evasive wording to avoid saying copper clad aluminum. If I knew for sure this was copper wire, I'd buy it, wish it was. Confusing information here at Amazon.com, including customer care info which appears to be wrong--truth or consequences? Advance auto rep says copper wire too on the online answer, but I think true copper wire would be heavier in pounds weight than this is.

It has copper. I used it for a CCTV system and had no problems. Good quality cable.

I cant see why they wouldnt be. They just connect two copper wires which is the case with any electric fence system.

It is copper, but I wouldn't recommend this kit. The wire gauge is too big to fit correctly into any of the fuse holders or fittings. The fuse was defective also.

If I understand your question correctly, the pads were copper colored. They did seem to have a film over them, but I did not have a problem soldering to them. The product I received looked very close to the picture posted by S. Conway (with 4 contacts). The pictures showing the two contact pads are incorrect. The crimp on connectors work very poorly due to this coating.

No, these are wire.less units running off AA batteries. You just screw he substrate to the wall/ceiling, install the batteries, setthe channel and you are doe. The included directions are very easy to follow.

No. They are pretty tight i actually plan on reinstalling them with the copper 'u' clamp (i think thats the name). Works fine with standard speaker wires. Not sure of gauge but it is tight and a little difficult to wire them all up.

It is not solid copper. What it is, many small copper copper wires are wound to together.

They appear to be copper through & through. After a year's use we are still very happy with them.

They are real nice cables and even with a red clear cover I can't tell if they are copper or not. Because of the silver color I see through the covering I would guess at the material. The ends are all heat shrink I can't tell anything.

It is metal don't believe they are made of copper just a finish. The rest of the clear tube, and internal funnel tube are plastic.
