Emtel 18 AWG Magnet Wire - 1 lb Enameled Copper Winding Wire

I bought this wire to make my own wire coil for a project. It seems to be decent wire, the coating stays on good but can be scraped off if need to solder to.

I needed to hand make some inductors. I can't buy what I need. I had some other wire that was another brand and it was just wound on a spool and not neatly at that. This spool is very neatly wound. It has a nice coating of enamel and is just awesome looking. For the size, it is flexible as it should be. It just feels about right for the size. If you need to wind a transformer, inductor or other magnetic type component, this is a awesome spool of wire to have. While the coating is not needed for crafts, it would be good for that too. Bare wire might be cheaper tho. This will be my go to brand from now on.

I received this item and it works good

Excellent packaging, product was well protected in a sturdy box, inside the box had literature pertaining to wire sizes. Feels heavy enough, bends like high quality copper. The coating looks good to me, it was a selling point that I am not disappointed in. It's one of those things that are too nice to use right away. Update: Purchased a second unit, this time 24 AWG. Same as before, good quality, I have used both for making coils/chokes/baluns/antenna for 852Mhz.

Exactly as described

Received okay.

Great Magnetic Wire

I'm using it for craft projects and though it wasn't made for that, it really worked out better than I could have ever expected. It costs a lot less than the bare wires at present. Also, it has a protective layer that helps with maring up the wire. However, if you are kinda rough, you can't buff out any flaws you make, so if you're trying to get perfect jewelry, you'll have to show a little bit of care. That being said, it was very protective, but still possible to scratch when you are just heavy handed. Awesome product all around.

Quality copper

Gut zum wickeln usw.

It’s magnet coil, and there were no shorts. The PAI (polyamide imide) coating is tough to glue as nitrocellulose (nail polish) and UV resin won’t hold the wraps of wire down. CA does a good job gluing the strands together, but the gaps need to be tiny. Threadlocker and an accelerator worked great to glue the wires into a fixed shape for an electromagnet project. Hot glue helps temporarily hold a shape until you can glue it properly as a tip.
