Nickel Wire
Stellanox Steel supplies high-purity Nickel Wire that delivers exceptional corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and thermal/electrical conductivity. Manufactured from premium grades such as Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) and Nickel 201 (UNS N02201), our wires are widely used in electronics, battery systems, welding, aerospace, chemical processing, resistance heating, and marine industries.
Available in bare, annealed, hard-drawn, stranded, coiled, and spooled formats, our nickel wires meet stringent ASTM, ISO, DIN, and EN standards for high-performance applications.
What are Nickel Wires?
Nickel Wire is a thin, flexible metallic conductor made of commercially pure nickel used for high-temperature and high-corrosion environments. Thanks to its magnetic properties, excellent ductility, and stable resistance, nickel wire is ideal for use in heating elements, resistance wire, shielding, battery welding, thermocouples, and electromagnetic shielding applications.
Nickel 200 offers high conductivity and corrosion resistance, while Nickel 201—with its lower carbon content—is used for high-temperature service or welded assemblies.
