15 feet 26 guage resistance nichrome wire
Most of my nichrome wire came from the same manufacturer that supplies Los Alamos labs
this nichrome wire is 26 gauge
- Nichrome is a brand name for a nickel-chromium resistance wire, a non-magnetic alloy of nickel and chromium. A common alloy is 80% nickel and 20% chromium, but there are many others to accommodate various applications. It is silvery-Grey in color, is corrosion resistant, and has a high melting point of about 1400 *C. Due to its relatively high resistivity and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, it is widely used in heating elements, such as in hair dryers, electric ovens/toasters, and a good model rocket igniter wire. Typically, Nichrome is wound in wire coils to a certain electrical resistance, and current passed through to produce heat.
If you would like a different Length/Gauge, i would be more than happy to put up a listing just for you!
i also have 42 gauge, 41gauge, and 44 gauge available. Please contact me if you wish to substitute or add an additional 30 ft.
If you have any questions please email me or if you are interested in any other products i have other parts!
