0.01mm Ni80 Nickel Chrome Wire Nicr 8020 Nickel Alloy Ultra Thin Nichrome Wire For Heating
Features:
- High Electrical Resistivity
- Excellent Oxidation Resistance
- Low Temperature Coefficient of Resistance
- Annealed Soft Temper
- Ultra fine diameter
Description:
Offering remarkable ohmic resistivity, robust scaling resistance, and dependable operation at soaring temperatures, nichrome wire stands out. Its nickel‑chromium makeup, often 80‑20, enables long‑term use up to 1200°C. The wire exhibits ample pliability for bending and spiral wrapping, yet holds its strength across numerous heating‑cooling cycles. Surface oxidation is minimal, and corrosion is effectively suppressed, which renders this material perfect for resistive heating elements and furnace components.

FAQ
Q1: Which grade should I choose for my application?
A: For maximum operating temperature up to 1300°C, choose Cr10Ni90. For general heating elements up to 1200°C, Cr20Ni80 is the industry standard. For cost sensitive projects with lower temperature requirements (≤1100°C), consider Cr20Ni35 or Cr20Ni30.
Q2: Can I get a sample before bulk order?
A: Yes, free samples of any grade are available upon request if in stock. You only pay shipping.
Q3: What is the lead time?
A: Samples ready in 2–3 days. Mass production takes 7–20 working days depending on quantity and grade.
Q4: Is there a minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: MOQ is 5 kgs.
Q5: How do you prevent the wire from tangling during shipping?
A: We wind on anti static plastic spools and seal in protective boxes. Each spool is inspected under magnification.
Q6: Do you offer a warranty?
A: Yes, 12 month warranty against manufacturing defects. Mill Test Reports (MTRs) are available with full batch traceability.
