Review: Top quality. Very durable. Excellent wear durability. It doesn't tarnish. - This gold-filled wire is very high quality. I used a torch at 1,300 degrees and protected it from getting fire-scale by using a generous amount of liquid soldering flux. I won't go into the knowledge-skill needed to know how to protect this (or any) gold-filled wire from fire-scale using liquid soldering flux. If you run into any problems using this wire it is not because of the wire. I also used 24k soft-solder chips. The soldered joints are very strong. Keep in mind that solder is not designed to fill in gaps, it is designed to solder joints together. You have to be highly skilled at soldering by making sure your pieces are precisely touching each other for solder to flow. If you are using 24k gold soft-gold soldering chips, soft-gold soldering chips provides a very tough joint bond with this wire. My handmade reading glasses hold up to daily use with no problems at all. I tested this wire ahead of time and it took a lot of strength to break the soldering bond on this wire using two pair of pliers. The bond to this wire is well beyond any type of force someone would need for a practical project like reading glasses. My reading glasses are very, very strongly bonded. You will need a torch and 1,300 degree heat to work with 24k soft gold soldering chips with this gold-filled wire because a soldering iron isn't going to reach that temperature and you won't get the flow you need. Again, I am saying it won't be because of this gold-filled wire where you run into problems. There is nothing wrong with this high-quality gold-filled wire. I included photos with this review so you can see for yourself what this gold-filled wire can do. Lastly, the durability of this gold-filled wire is superb. After 8 months my handmade reading glasses are as good as they were the day I made them. This gold-filled wire doesn't tarnish at all. In case you're not familiar with the properties of heating the gold-filled wire, it will become weakly pliable because that is what heat does. It's unavoidable. If you're not familiar with the physics of wire, soldering, and heat, this wire can be tempered back to its original hardness just by gently, barely bending it a few times, or through normal flexing use. I don't want to go into detail about all of that as a teaching lesson. I'm just saying, heat naturally weakens wire. Gently barely flexing it a few times strengthens it back to normal hardness. To wrap this up... This wire is 100% worth your money spent. This seller/supplier is the only one I purchased multiple sizes of gold-filled wire from. I have no reason to go anywhere else to purchase gold-filled wire. It's top-quality gold-filled wire.
Review: Works well and allergy friendly - I'm not an expert jewelry maker, but I make most of my own earring because I have some severe metal allergies and gold earring are pretty spendy. This has worked and held up well for over a year with regular wear. Seems like a solid product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this gold 14k fill?**
A: Yes, 14 /20 means the wire/jewelry has composition of 14karat purity gold and 20 means the amount of gold is 1/20 (or 5%) by weight of the wire/jewelry. Copper is commonly the main metal used in 14/20 gold fill wire/jewelry, since it is readily available, has a similar melting point and durable.

**Q: What kind of solder and flux should i use with this? gold, siver solder? flux paste or solder/paste combo, etc?  and will it tarnish over time?**
A: You can use either one that easy for you: wire, sheet, chip or paste solder. Also depend on what kind of project that you are working with. There are different kind of solders that you can use for example gold filled, yellow silver or paste. I think the most convenience one would be solder paste that contains flux.

**Q: What is in the inside? Brass, copper, or silver?**
A: This gold filled wire is brass core.

**Q: What does 14/20 mean?**
A: In this reference, the 14 refers to 14 karat gold coating permanently bonded over the core or base metal (brass, bronze, etc). The 20 refers to 1/20 which refers to the ratio of 14 karat gold layer to base metal layer by weight.  The wire is 1/20 gold and 19/20 brass or base metal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality
*by L***B on October 22, 2024*

This wire has a genuine 14k beautiful finish look to it, not yellow-orange like some GF. I am using it to make wire wrapped jewelry. It is durable and the finish does not mar with my jewelry pliers. Great price and quality. I will definitely be buying more.
