Description

Detailed Overview

This is a premium 19-Strand Nichrome Heating Wire, composed of the industry-standard 80/20 Nickel/Chrome alloy. Supplied in a 500-meter roll, this wire offers exceptional resistance stability and a high temperature tolerance up to 1100C. It is the ideal, universally accepted choice for manufacturing or repairing high-quality metallic resistance heating elements (Supplier: Incertech).


The Ultimate Resistance Wire for High-Temperature Elements


Nichrome 80/20 alloy is prized for its high electrical resistivity and superior oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures, ensuring a stable and long-lasting heating coil. The 19-strand construction provides excellent flexibility for coiling while maintaining mechanical robustness. This wire is easily weldable to terminal tails, making it a versatile option for the fabrication of new heating pads and other high-temperature components.


Features

  • Alloy Composition: 80% Nickel and 20% Chromium (80/20 Nichrome).
  • Temperature Rating: Suitable for elements operating up to 1100C.
  • Construction: 19 Stranded configuration for flexibility and durability.
  • Quantity: Economical 500-meter roll for manufacturing/repair.
  • Workability: Can be easily welded or crimped to required component terminals.

Primary Use

Manufacturing and repairing resistance heating elements (e.g., FCP core wires), high-temperature furnaces, and other components requiring a stable high-resistance material.

FAQ

Why is a 19-strand wire preferred over a solid wire?

The stranded construction provides significantly greater flexibility, allowing the wire to be coiled and bent more easily for use in flexible heating elements without risking premature fatigue failure.

Can this wire be used for making my own heating elements?

Yes, this Nichrome wire is the exact material used by professionals to manufacture durable, high-temperature heating elements, provided the correct resistance and power calculations are applied.

What makes the 80/20 alloy ideal for heating elements?

The 80% Nickel content provides excellent mechanical strength and resistance to oxidation, while the 20% Chromium content contributes high electrical resistivity, allowing the material to generate high heat efficiently.
