0.01mm Nichrome20/80 Wire

Micro resistance wire, which is a fine, high-resistance wire made from materials like nichrome, kanthal, or other alloys, has a wide range of applications due to its unique properties. Its small size and high resistance make it ideal for precision applications where controlled heat generation, electrical resistance, or specific mechanical characteristics are required.

For Nichrome material, the min size is 0.01mm.

For FeCrAl material, the min size is 0.06mm
