Supply
«Auremo» company is supplier of heat-resisting alloys. You can order a nichrome alloy in a form of wire or strip on the company’s website. Strip is implemented in rolls and a wire in a form of coils or bobbins. Nichrome alloy price of wire and strip is inversely related to thickness. The supplies are implemented directly from stock. It gives a vivid choice of products for customers, as well as a significant savings in their warehouses. Our headquarters are located in Moscow, St. Petersburg and in different cities of Eastern Europe.
Composition
Nichrome contains of nickel and chrome. A composition is enriched with such elements as: ferrum, aluminium, silicon, mangan, titanium, sulfur, phosphorus, carbon up to 1%. Physical features of different alloy grades are a function of fraction of components and miscellaneous materials. Nickel tends to merge other metals, and at the same time to keep corrosion resistance and not to lose a high temperature strength and plasticity. Chrome raise a corrosion resistance and a high temperature strength; it imparts a firmness to alloy.

Usefulness of nichrome
Nichrome 80−20 grade can stand heating up to 1200 ° C; Nichrome 60−15 grade — up to 1125 ° C. At that, a minimum temperature coefficient of expansion does not allow a wire to sag. These advantages, along with corrosion resistance, make this alloy an indispensable heating element, which can be exploited in an aggressive environment at significant temperatures. There is quite a huge range of products that may be made of it, as it is malleable, it can be easily drilled, pressed, welded and rolled in a very thin wire. Nichrome is relatively expensive, but its high cost is offset by strength, durability, reliability to a full extent.
Dimension
The main and most popular grades are Nichrome 60−15 (15% of Cr, 60% of Ni) and Nichrome 80−20 (20% of Cr, 80% of Ni). There are also other analogous grades in catalog. Before buying it is necessary to define an application of alloy.
International marking
Nichrome 60−15 grade: 15% of Cr, 60% of Ni, 24% of Iron, 675 ohms/cmf, the flowing temperature is 1390 °C. The international analogues: Alloy C, Chromel C, Cronifer II, N6, Nikrothal 60, Ni60Cr15, Nikrothal 6;
Nichrome 80−20: 80% of Ni, 20% of Cr, 650 ohms/cmf, flowing temperature is 1200 °C. Resistohm 80, Euronichrome N8, Chromel A, Cronix 80, HAI-NiCr 80, Nichrome V, Nikrothal 8, Ni80Cr20. Thanks to Albert Marsh’s inventions in 1905, nichrome literally blinded a whole world by its brilliance. This alloy is not only met urgent requirements of a metallurgy of that time, but even divined them. Within a few years after opening of nichrome, it finds wide application in a manufacture of household appliances. «General Electric» had turned an attention to this material and started a manufacture of a heating element for electric toasters, which were previously made with an iron spiral. Meanwhile, a quality of construction appeared to be much higher. Nichrome filament does not rust like iron. It does not sag when heating and melting. These properties allow a wide application of this material in food industry.
