Nichrome Resistance Wire 3.28 feet 26 AWG

Nichrome Resistance Wire is useful for making heating elements. When power is applied across resistance wire, the wire heats up. When designing a heating element with Nichrome Resistance Wire, have a resistance of your length of wire equal to the rated output voltage of the supply divided by the rated current. Use the formula below for easy heating element calculations:

Length of wire for heating element in feet = (Supply Voltage / Supply Current) / 26.5

Specifications:

• Resistance: 26.5 Ohms/foot
• 26 AWG
• Material: 80% Nichrome, 20% Chromium (No Iron so no rust)
• Total Length: 3.28 Feet
• Good for making heating elements
• CAUTION: Nichrome Resistance wire can get HOT!
