Nichrome Wire |
Nichrome Wire 80/20 - A Resistance Alloy
used in electrical heating application. It is recommended
for use in dry air applications up to 2150 degrees F with
good hot strength. It is an alloy of nickel and chromium
with high electrical resistance; used for resistance heating
elements. Nichrome 80/20 is an ideal material, because it
has relatively high resistance and forms an adherent layer
of chromium oxide when it is heated for the first time.
Material beneath the wire will not oxidize, preventing the
wire from breaking or burning out. |
