What is Nichrome Wire used for? Nichrome Wire's properties make it ideal for use in toasters, hairdryers, storage heaters and even industrial furnaces. The alloy can also be used to create a hot wire cutter which can be used in domestic or industrial applications to make precision cuts on certain foams and plastics.

Nickel Chromium (Nichrome) is an alloy commonly used as wire in heating applications for tools and appliances, hot-wire foam cutters, and electronic cigarette

coils. It offers excellent temperature ratings and is silver in color. Nichrome wire is corrosion resistant and is available in many sizes and alloy variations.

Remington Industries is proud to offer our Nichrome 80 Resistance Wire. This uninsulated wire is nominally composed of 80 percent nickel & 20 percent chromium,

and meets ASTM B267 standards for resistance wire. Our nichrome wire has an appreciable temperature rating of 1177°C (2150°F), is corrosion resistant, and resists

oxidation even at high temperatures. This resistance wire is suitable for use in heater wire applications (such as toasters) and cutting wire applications (such as

foam rubber cutters). Remington Industries offers nichrome wire in a broad range of wire gauges (from 14 to 32 AWG) to meet the specifications you require. We

additionally provide this wire in several spool sizes (see below) for your convenience
