6J40 Constantan-Type Precision Resistance Wire High Tensile Strength and Good Elongation for Superior and Performance
Constantan is a type of resistance alloy, which is made up of copper and nickel as the main components. It has a low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), and a wide operating temperature range (below 500 ℃ ). It has good properties on mechanical working, high resistance of corrosion. It is used for variable and strain resistance elements in alternative instruments.
6J40, also known as CuNi40, is a copper-nickel alloy with approximately 40% nickel content. It is widely used in various industrial applications due to its unique properties. An excellent choice for applications where a combination of high resistivity, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength is required, particularly in marine environments and chemical processing industries.
