18 Gauge 1mm Aluminum Craft Wire, 165 Feet Bendable Gold Metal Wire

18 Gauge 1mm Aluminum Craft Wire Good balance of strength and flexibility. Easy to shape, holds form well, and doesn’t rust. What it’s useful for: • jewellery making (rings, loops, frames) • model building and layout work • garden ties and plant support • securing cables or light household fixes • craft projects, decorations, DIY frames Why it works: • 1mm thickness is sturdy but still bendable by hand • aluminium is lightweight and corrosion-resistant • holds shape once formed without springing back too much • easy to cut with basic wire cutters How to use: Measure and cut required length Straighten if needed by running between fingers or a flat surface Bend or shape by hand or with pliers Twist ends or secure depending on the job How to get clean results: • use round-nose pliers for smooth loops • use flat-nose pliers for sharp bends • avoid over-bending the same spot (can weaken it) • cut cleanly to prevent sharp edges • for neat work, keep tension even when shaping What you’ll notice: • easy to work with straight away • holds form without constant adjustment • versatile across multiple uses Simple, reliable wire that covers a lot of jobs without needing specialist tools.

It's really good and shiny but it's so bendy and not strong

Does the job

I bought this to make tiny little chair legs for a craft project. At about £5, it was a really good deal. The wire is well made and the colour is great. It's easy to cut - I used electrical wire cutters rather than craft cutters but a normal pair of scissors would have done the job very easily. I thought 18 gauge/1mm thickness would mean that the wire would be quite stiff but it's very bendy and I probably should have gone for 2mm instead perhaps. Even so, I was pleased with the result and this will be kept in the craft box for future projects.

I only needed a little. It was recommended for attaching a clove of garlic to the top of an aquarium so the roots could help keep the water clean. It made the job easy. This will be a very useful wire for all sorts of projects. Its thin, It’s shiny, non corrosive strong but easy to bend but stiff enough to able to keep the shape you bend it too.

I got the roll in black finish, while looking for something that I could fashion into a small key hook to mount inside a lock box (as well as seeing a use for subsequent projects around the house). This seems perfect - the thickness makes it malleable and easy enough to work with, but gives it some rigidity when doubled over and twisted. I think it's great value. See photo for size reference with a multitool.

This wire is easy to use bend with your hands and cut with scissors it’s good quality for crafts has a shiny colour and a bit thin functional for crafts but durable enough for simple rings definitely fun for first time wire crafts

Good value, great for my needs

No es lo que pensaba. Si quieres hacer alambrismo no es un buen producto, demasiado débil.

Très bien, je k'ai pris pour l'art du fll de fer, bon je me suis trompé en prenant du fil trop fin. Mais pas grave, il servia différemment.

Ich habe zur Weihnachtszeit diese Drahtrolle bestellt um Brillen für Weihnachtsmänner her zu stellen;-) Völlig problemlos konnte ich über einen Stift die Brillen formen, ohne Buckel oder Wellen. Lässt sich sehr gut verarbeiten und man hat lange Zeit etwas davon. Topp!

Questo filo di alluminio è malleabile al punto giusto e rimane in posizione. L’unico peccato è che, essendo verniciato, appena si gratta un po’ contro qualcosa si rovina

Basteldraht ist wie beschrieben. Biegsam und zum basteln für Schmuck oder Sonnenfänger gut geeignet. Kein Fehlkauf! Preis / Leistung okay.
