Nichrome 80 Wire has a low temperature coefficient of resistance
and a low change in resistance during its service life that
combine to assure faster heat-up times, more uniform operating
temperatures, and a longer useful life. Its excellent mechanical
stability minimizes variables in element design, assures even
stretch in coiled form, and eliminates problems of shrinkage,
growth, sag, or distortion in use.
This wire is for repair and maintenance of electronic
components. Typical applications for Master Wire Supply Nichrome
80 wire are: Industrial and hobby hot-wire foam cutters, internal
support in ceramics, home and industrial heaters, diffusion
heaters, dishwashers, cooking plates, electric blankets, hair
dryers, kerosene-fired appliances, kettles, refrigerators, rice
cookers, tumble dryers, washing machines, electrical heating
elements in high-temperature furnaces for heat treatment, glass,
steel, and electronics industries.
