Nichrome 80 The Mesh Company are best know as suppliers of top quality nichrome 80 (Ni80) wires. We have enormous stock levels at all times, as we use this wire to weave our high quality grade woven mesh products. Our brilliant staff are experts in producing our spools of round wire on our 6 rapid action winding machines. All spools are produced to carry a little extra length to make up for any waste when handling the product. We specialise in fulfilling high volumes of smaller wire spools to suit every requirement and budget. Because we produce our own spools we are able to offer a wide choice of AWG and lengths. We are also able to guarantee the best prices in Europe. It is primarily used as a resistance heating wire because nichrome 80 is a non-magnetic alloy composed of nickel and chrome. As a general rule, the alloy commonly supplied contains 80% nickel and 20% chrome by weight. However, there are numerous variations available based on the basic formulation that may suit a particular application. Electric ovens, toasters and hair dryers use this element because of its relatively high electrical resistivity and resistance to oxidation. An electric circuit is controlled by a resistance wire. Having a high resistivity allows you to use a shorter wire. A resistor should be selected based on its temperature coefficient of resistivity and corrosion resistance when stability is of primary importance. A high resistance and oxidation resistance are important characteristics when using this material for heating elements for electric heaters and toasters.
