Annealed for softness and flexibility, it delivers consistent performance for electronics, heating elements, and industrial applications, ensuring durability and uniform heat distribution. ## Description **Wire Specifications:** - Diameter: 22 Gauge / 0.64mm - Shape: Round - Alloy: Nichrome 80 (80% Ni, 19.5% Cr, 1.45% Si) - Length: 100 ft. - Heat Treatment: Annealed (soft) - Melting Temperature: 2552°F / 1400°C - Maximum Continuous Operating Temperature: 2150°F / 1180°C - Resistance: 1.016 Ohms/ft at room temperature Nichrome 80 Wire has a low temperature coefficient of resistance and minimal change in resistance during its service life. These properties ensure faster heat-up times, more uniform operating temperatures, and a longer useful life. Its excellent mechanical stability minimizes variables in element design, ensures even stretch in coiled form, and eliminates problems such as shrinkage, growth, sag, or distortion in use. This wire is intended for the repair and maintenance of electronic components. Typical applications include 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, and electrical heating elements in high-temperature furnaces used in heat treatment, glass, steel, and electronics industries.

But, I wouldn't suggest it. **Q: Would this work to make heated socks?** A: I've made heated gloves using thin gauge copper wire. It is very flexible which is good for gloves. Make sure to do the math on how much power your wire element will consume, calculated by squaring the voltage of your source divided by the resistance of the wire: V^2/R. 5W is a good starting point. If it's not getting hot enough then shorten the wire to lower the resistance. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***A on 17 January 2025* This was exactly what I needed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***V on 14 September 2024* Works great, great quality, price is good as well. Very strong also ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***K on 12 August 2023* One of the wires on my grid cutter in my undercounter ice machine broke, and the grid cutter as a complete unit is no longer available. I researched how to replace the wire and saw other people had done it with this 22 ga wire, so I thought I would give it a shot. The wire in my grid cutter was slightly smaller than 22 ga, but it was closest to 22 ga. With a little patience, I was able to restring the cutter and it works great! Thrilled I don't have to buy a whole new machine! ## Frequently Bought Together - Nichrome 80-100' - 22 Gauge Wire - 100ft - 0.65mm - 0.025in - Made in USA - Master Wire Supply - Nichrome 80-50' - 20 Gauge Wire - 50ft - 0.81mm - 0.032in - Made in USA - Master Wire Supply - Nichrome 80-100' - 24 Gauge Wire - 100ft - 0.51mm - 0.02in - Made in USA - Master Wire Supply --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/132228950-nichrome-80-100-22-gauge-resistance-wire](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/132228950-nichrome-80-100-22-gauge-resistance-wire) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
