0.8mm Premium Craft Wire

Description

0.8mm Premium Craft Wire (20ga) is a popular choice for Wire Wrapped Jewelry projects, these tarnish-resistant craft wires often used for shaping the outline. High-quality copper is used as the core due to its flexibility, strength, and conductivity, the base metal provides structural integrity and ease of manipulation for crafting purposes.

SILVER PLATING

• Electroplating Process: A thin layer of real silver is applied to the surface of the base metal. This is done through electroplating, where the base metal is submerged in a solution containing silver ions and an electric current deposits the silver onto the wire.
• Purpose: The silver layer provides the desired appearance and quality (smooth and shiny).

Non-Tarnish Coating

• Application: A clear, protective layer is added to the silver-plated wire.
• Methods: This is done through electro-coating.
• Purpose: The coating prevents exposure to air, moisture, and chemicals, which are the main causes of tarnishing. It also enhances durability, making the wire resistant to scratches and corrosion.
