Solid Core Cable, 500g reel

This solid core cable/wire is a 16SWG single-strand pre-tinned, soft, uninsulated copper wire with a nominal core diameter of 1.63mm. It is supplied in 500g reels with an approximate wire length of 25m.

The pre-tinned wire is much easier to solder than bare copper wires, making it ideal for rapidly repairing tracks, or acting as a jumper/shorting link on a PCB. The wire is rated for 65A and can be used as fuse wire.

This wire is also used for making loops in sun-catchers, tags for leaded windows, stiffening weak designs, and other craft uses. A simple way to make your hoops/rings. Wrap your wire around a pen or pencil several times creating a spiral effect (not overlapping) and then pull the spiral off the pen/pencil and simply snip with a pair of wire cutters up one side of the spiral. Hey presto, you’ve got yourself some rings/hoops.

The tinning protects the wire from oxidation/corrosion, giving some weather protection when used in craft items that are kept outdoors. These reels of 16SWG single-strand pre-tinned, copper wire are fully RoHS compliant.
