Constantan wire COPPER nickel resistance wire CuNi44 or cn49W/6J40
Constantan CuNi44Mn Copper Nickel Electric Resistance Heating Wire
onstantan As a big manufacturer and exporter in China on the line of electric resistance alloy,
we can supply all kinds of electric resistance alloy wire and strips (resistance steel wire and
strips),
Material: CuNi1, CuNi2, CuNi6, CuNi8, CuNi14, CuNi19, CuNi23, CuNi30, CuNi34, CuNi44.
1. CuNi44, also called Constantan, has a very low temperature coefficient, high electrical
resistance, high ductility and non-corroding properties. It is suitable for use at temperatures
up to 600° C (1110° F). As a very malleable, very ductile alloy, it has a very good resistance
to oxidation.
The alloy is non-magnetic. It is suitable for electrical resistors, potentiometers, heating wires,
heating cables and mats. Ribbons are used for heating of bimetals. Another field of
application is manufacturing of thermocouples because it develops a high electromotive
force (EMF) in association with others metals.

Application of Constantan
Constantan is a copper-nickel alloy that contains specific minor amounts of additional
elements to achieve precise values for the temperature coefficient of resistivity. Careful
control of melting and conversion practices results in a very low level of pinholes at
ultra-thin thicknesses. The alloy is used extensively for foil resistors and strain gauges.
