SILVER PLATED BRASS WIRE - Ms/Ag
General Description
ELEKTRISOLA silver plated brass wire is composed of a brass core covered by a concentric silver plating. This material combines the excellent mechanical properties and bending proof performance of brass with the bright and shiny surface of silver. In addition, the silver coating provides a high corrosion resistance. All of these advantages make it the preferred choice for colored textile wire, especially in fabrics.
Silver plated brass wire is available in diameters from 0.030mm to 0.500mm (AWG 48 - 24) with all insulation and self-bonding enamels. Elektrisola also produces bare wire in the same diameter range.
