Nicrolive 40

Categories: ,
General Details
Comprises 40% nickel and 18% chromium. Functionally it bears a close resemblance to Nicrolive 60. It can have a continuous working temperature of 300°C (572°F), finally melting away at 1100°C (2012°F). Its higher ferrous content makes it a heavy-duty wire ideal for use in heated wire-cutting applications. Apart from having high ductility, this wire also exhibits magnetic properties.
