Can this wire be soldred to with conventional solder?

The problem isn’t soldering nichrome wire; it’s just that if you use nichrome for it’s intended purpose, it’ll just remedy the solder as soon as it heats up.

Can I fire this in a ceramic kiln to 1900F? Want to use it to embed into low fare ceramics

It can easily take that temperature.

I want a malleable wire to twist with a drill to make salt water fishing flies. Is it twistable and resistant to salt water corrosion?

It is twistable. I did that to make a multi wire heating element using a drill. Not sure about the salt water.

hi, will a 9 volt battery make this stuff glow red hot?

This is perfect for firework/model rocket ignition wire. If you need something for an application such as hot wire foam cutting, you should go with a thicker wire (lower AWG)
