## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this fire to cone 6 in a ceramic piece?**
A: Yes. I use this wire to make hooks for ornaments and fire them to cone 6.

**Q: Does this contain nickel?**
A: No the Kanthal wire does not. Kanthal is a trade name for FeCrAl which is the alloy consisting of Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr), and Aluminum (Al). So Nickel free. 

I have severe nickel allergies and have done the research and order this particular brand regularly. If that is why you are asking buy with confidence.

**Q: Can this wire be used to heat a furnace?**
A: I cannot answer that question. I CAN tell you that I heat it in glass fusing projects in temps as high as 1400 degrees. It’s great!

**Q: Can be used on RDA?**
A: Yes, using this in my TFV12 Prince.
