The 0Cr15Al5 FeCrAl Wire is an iron-chromium-aluminum alloy engineered for high-resistivity applications. Chromium, at 15%, creates a strong oxide layer that protects the wire against oxidation and scaling, even under extended high-temperature exposure. Aluminum, at 5%, enhances this protective layer, increasing durability and maintaining structural integrity. Iron acts as the base material, offering mechanical strength and stability. The high resistivity of this wire ensures that it efficiently converts electrical energy into heat, making it ideal for precision industrial heating systems.
