Review: Bought to make an acrylic line bender - I bought this because I was making a line bender for acrylic sheet. This wire is connected to a power source which heats up. You place the acrylic sheet over the top of the wire and you have a specific heated line to soften and bend the acrylic Review: Lo que estaba buscando - Para cortar unicel más preciso ## Features - Wire for Industrial and hobby hot-wire foam cutters, heaters, hair dryers, kettles, refrigerators, ect… - Nichrome 80 26g 100 ft - Annealed soft - 2.6 Ohms/ft Resistance - For use at temperatures up to 1180°C (2150°F) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07CHVKKCQ | | Best Sellers Rank | 265,325 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 1,287 in Electrical Wire | | Brand | Master Wire Supply | | Colour | Silver | | Country Of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 515 Reviews | | Gauge | 26.0 | | Manufacturer | Master Wire Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | 43237-2 | | Material | Nichrome | | Model Number | 43237-2 | | No. of wires | 1 | | Number Of Wires | 1 | | Number of cable strands | Single Strand | | Strands | Single Strand | | UPC | 742415912539 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Wire Diameter | 0.4 Millimetres | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Master Wire Supply - **Colour:** Silver - **Gauge:** 26.0 - **Material:** Nichrome - **Number of cable strands:** Single Strand ## Images ![Nichrome 80-100' - 26 Gauge Wire - 100ft - 0.4mm - 0.016in - Made in USA - Master Wire Supply - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81dTHqRlkJL.jpg) ![Nichrome 80-100' - 26 Gauge Wire - 100ft - 0.4mm - 0.016in - Made in USA - Master Wire Supply - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zxUMNkVjL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this work for a cutting grid in a stand alone ice machine** A: I never thought of that as a use but it would work fine. I use it to cut EPS foam where the temperature on the wire range around 600 degrees. As you know the temp is determined by a combination of amperage, gauge and length of the wire between the power leads. So long as you have sufficient power this should work great. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought to make an acrylic line bender *by H***N on 17 July 2026* I bought this because I was making a line bender for acrylic sheet.
