Nichrome Wire – 100gm

The Nichrome Wire is a resistance wire made from a nickel-chromium alloy and is commonly used in applications where electrical energy needs to be converted into heat. Supplied by Elmo Agencies, a trusted scientific manufacturer in Ambala, it suits laboratory experiments, educational demonstrations, resistance studies, and heating applications.

Nichrome is a family of alloys primarily containing nickel and chromium. The exact composition varies by grade. Nichrome is valued for its relatively high electrical resistivity, resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures, and ability to withstand repeated heating, making it widely used as a resistance-heating material.

When electric current passes through the wire, its electrical resistance causes heat to be generated. The amount of heat produced depends on factors including the wire’s resistance and the current flowing through it.
