For many years, nichrome tape has been in great demand in the energy industry and the national economy. Due to its composition and physical and mechanical properties, it is used in electric heating devices for industrial and domestic use. After all, electric ovens, heat treatment devices and household appliances that operate on heating cannot be effective without nichrome tape.
Unlike traditional steel, nichrome has a sufficiently high heat resistance even in an oxidizing environment, high resistance, and also a minimum coefficient of specific expansion. It is the use of nickel and chromium in the composition of nichrome that made it possible to obtain a material with high heat resistance, ductility and durability. It should be noted that nichrome tape is an expensive type of rolled metal, but in comparison with its reliability and unique physical properties, it is still necessary in various industries.
Currently, this material is widely used for the production of parts and assemblies that are exposed to high-temperature effects, namely, in kilns, heat treatment devices, drying devices and electric furnaces. In addition, sometimes nichrome tape is used as an excellent material for the production of products, the work of which is associated with aggressive environments. In mechanical engineering, this material can be used in the process of thermal spraying of powders as an underlayer. In microprocessor production, nichrome tape can be used in parts (rheostats, resistor elements) that operate at high temperatures.
In Russia, nichrome tape can be bought in St. Petersburg at Tsvetnoy Metalloprokat at http://office-metall. ru /katalog /lenta /nixromovaya.html . The assortment includes products made of nichrome with a thickness of 0.1 to 3.2 millimeters and a width of 6 to 250 millimeters. We offer deliveries from 1 kg with delivery throughout the Russian Federation.
