Manganin wire 0.08mm to 10mm 6J13, 6J12, 6J11 6J8 used in the manufacture of resistor

Short Description:

Manganin is a trademarked name for an alloy of typically 86% copper, 12% manganese, and 2% nickel. It was first developed by Edward Weston in 1892, improving upon his Constantan (1887).

A resistance alloy with moderate resistivity and low temperature coefficent. The resistance/temperature curve is not as flat as the constantans nor are the corrosion resistance properties as good.

Manganin foil and wire is used in the manufacture of resistors, particularly ammeter shunts, because of its virtually zero temperature coefficient of resistance value[1] and long term stability. Several Manganin resistors served as the legal standard for the ohm in the United States from 1901 to 1990.[2] Manganin wire is also used as an electrical conductor in cryogenic systems, minimizing heat transfer between points which need electrical connections.

    Application of Manganin

    Manganin foil and wire is used in the manufacture of resistor, Particularly ammeter shunt, because of its virtually zero temperature coefficient of resistance value and long term stability.
    The copper-based low resistance heating alloy is widely used in low-voltage circuit breaker, thermal overload relay, and other low-voltage electrical product. It is one of the key materials of the low-voltage electrical products. The materials produced by our company have the characteristics of good resistance consistency and superior stability. We can supply all kinds of round wire, flat and sheet materials.
