Abstract From the Canadian patent

An improved aluminum alloy armoured cable wrap has been produced which permits the use of less aluminum alloy in the cable wrap thereby achieving lighter construction while, meeting or exceeding strength and flexibility requirements. The armoured cable wrap is made from aluminum alloy strip material formed of an aluminum alloy containing about 2.8-3.5 percent by weight Mg, about 0.25-0.70 percent by weight Mn and about 0.15-0.35 percent by weight Cr. Up to 0.5 percent by weight of Cu may also be added. The strip material is heat treated preferably to an Ultimate Tensile Strength of at least 265 MPa.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 31, 1993 and granted May 12, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 31, 2013.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 31, 2015.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
