This silver-plated copper wrapping wire is ideally suited for wire wrapping projects, including prototyping, small production runs, and other applications such as production line work. The wire is highly flexible yet resistant to abrasion, made from oxygen-free high conductivity (OFHC) copper, and well insulated. Because wire wrap construction has connections that are less likely to fail and doesn’t use solder, which can be faulty (corrosion and cold or dry joints), wire wrap construction is often more reliable than printed circuits. We also carry wire wrapping tools, wire wrapping bits, and sleeves.
Key Features:
- High Conductivity: Silver-plated copper for excellent electrical performance
- Insulated: Durable insulation prevents short circuits
- Flexible: Easily bends and wraps around pins and terminals
- Abrasion-Resistant: Withstands wear and tear during use
- Reliable Connections: Reduces the risk of connection failures compared to soldering
Technical Specifications:
- Material: Silver-plated copper with PVC insulation
- Gauge: 30 AWG
- Length: 250m
- Temperature Rating: -20°C to +80°C
- Voltage Rating: 300V
Applications:
- Prototyping and testing circuits on breadboards
- Creating jumpers and interconnections on circuit boards
- Repairing and modifying electronic devices
- Educational projects and DIY electronics
- Production line work
Usage:
- Cut the wrapping wire to the desired length using wire cutters.
- Strip the insulation from the ends using a wire stripper.
- Wrap the exposed wire around the terminal or pin using a wrapping tool.
- Ensure a secure and tight connection to maintain reliable electrical conductivity.
- Use different colors to identify and organize various connections.
Caution:
- Avoid over-bending the wire to prevent breaking the internal conductor.
- Ensure proper insulation is maintained to prevent short circuits.
- Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the quality of the insulation.
