NICHROME (RESISTANCE) WIRE - BARE - 125GM

A low nickel (0.5%0 iron allow for laboratory uses.  Made up of 0.5% Ni, 15% Cr, 4% Al, 89.5% Fe.  Designed for science experiments but can also be used in heaters and electrical appliances. Maximum operating temperature 1150°C, Electrical resistivity at 20°C | mm2/m - 1.26

Lengths are derived from diameter, density, and mass - they are not exact (but should be quite close). Many industrial and hobby hot wire foam cutters also use Nichrome wire. Nichrome wire is also commonly used in ceramics, as an internal support structure to help some elements of clay sculptures hold their shape while they are still soft. Nichrome wire is used because of its ability to withstand high temperatures.

NOTE: The wire is sold by weight. The lengths are approximations based on the density, weight, and thickness of the wire.
