CuNi10 is a NiCu alloy wire built for stable medium-to-high temp industrial electric heating jobs like ovens, heat treat equipment, and non-stop furnaces.
Standout Features of CuNi10
CuNi10 is a classic engineering tipping point in the NiCu lineup.
- Nickel around 10%
- Resistivity, stability, cost hit the “engineering gold zone”
- Resistance shifts gentler with temp—better control precision
Lots of engineers “get serious with NiCu” starting here.
- Not as copper-heavy as low-nickel
- Cost doesn’t spike like high-nickel
