Nickel Wire
Nickel wire for conductive, electrochemical, corrosion-resistant, and high-purity industrial components.
Nickel wire is selected for conductivity, corrosion resistance, weldability, and stable performance in industrial environments. Supply can be reviewed by grade, diameter, temper, surface, package, and documentation requirement.
Sourcing data for nickel wire.
| Typical forms | Spool, coil, straight wire, cut length |
|---|---|
| Diameter range | 0.05-6.0 mm typical request range |
| Length / package | Spool, coil, bundle, or cut pieces |
| Common grades | Nickel 200, Nickel 201, UNS N02200, UNS N02201 |
| Reference standards | ASTM B166 / project specification |
| Condition | Annealed, hard, or project-defined temper |
Select the grade for the service conditions.
Use these as selection starting points. Final choice depends on the drawing, governing specification, service conditions, and qualification requirements.
| Grade | Typical selection logic | Confirm before quotation |
|---|---|---|
| Nickel 200 / UNS N02200 | Commercially pure wrought nickel for conductive and corrosion-resistant industrial parts. | Operating temperature, product form, condition, dimensions, and governing specification. |
| Nickel 201 / UNS N02201 | Low-carbon nickel commonly considered where elevated-temperature carbon control is important. | Service temperature, fabrication route, condition, testing, and end-use requirements. |
Three items to prevent specification gaps.
Confirm dimensions together with grade, condition, tolerances, quantity, and inspection scope.
Diameter and delivery form
State finished diameter, tolerance, quantity, coil, spool, straight length, or cut-piece format, and any straightness or cast requirements.
Temper and surface
Specify annealed, cold-worked, or project-defined condition, surface finish, cleanliness, lubricants, and downstream forming, welding, or mesh requirements.
Package and documents
Define spool or coil dimensions, unit weight, governing standard, certificate type, heat or lot traceability, testing, marking, and export packing.
Match wire supply to the application.
End use determines the grade, condition, dimensional control, surface preparation, testing, traceability, and downstream fabrication route.
Chemical processing
Confirm process media, concentration, temperature, pressure, fabrication route, and corrosion-design basis before selecting the nickel grade and condition.
Review application detailsHydrogen and electrochemical systems
Conductivity, corrosion exposure, cleanliness, surface condition, joining method, and component geometry determine the supply requirements.
Review application detailsSemiconductor and high-purity equipment
Surface condition, cleanliness, dimensional control, traceability, and contamination-sensitive handling should be defined with the end use.
Review application detailsMarine and industrial assemblies
Confirm environmental exposure, mechanical load, fabrication route, dimensional tolerances, and inspection requirements for the finished assembly.
Review application detailsDefine inspection and documentation before production.
Align document requirements with the production lot, inspection plan, marking, and final records.
- Material identity and heat or lot traceability aligned with the delivered spools, coils, straight lengths, or cut pieces when required
- Chemical and mechanical results checked against the specified product standard when required
- Diameter, tolerance, surface, delivery form, spool or coil format, and unit-weight checks agreed for the order
- Certificate type, additional testing, marking, contamination control, and packing confirmed before order release
Frequently asked questions about nickel wire.
What nickel wire grades do you supply?
Nickel 200, Nickel 201, UNS N02200, and UNS N02201, from 0.05 mm to 6.0 mm diameter.
Which standard covers nickel wire?
ASTM B166 or project specification.
What applications use nickel wire?
Electronics, battery and electrochemical parts, resistance heating, welding, and corrosion-resistant assemblies.
Custom processing around the drawing.
Send target dimensions, tolerances, surface, package format, and inspection requirements so the production route can be reviewed before quotation.
Wire drawing → Intermediate annealing → Final annealing → Surface cleaning → Spooling → Inspection
Wire drawing → Annealing → Straightening → Cut-to-length → Surface cleaning → Inspection
