Does anyone know what the technical name is for the really thin
flexible insulated wire that people use for modding/hacking things?
Think I’ve seen some of it at the space before. Think it might also be
used for wire wrapping. Does anyone have a part number at CPC/Farnell?
I can’t find it at all.
Cheers.

The Kynar is a thin coated single core cable which needs explicitly
stripping. I have some green and blue at home which I used for altering SMD
electronics.
The wire-wrapping wire can also be found, and has a coating that can be
melted off with standard soldering irons. I have a pen and several reels at
home.On 8 December 2012 15:45, Adrian Godwin artgodwin@gmail.com wrote:

Yes, and it’s quite hard to strip without a special tool. It’s ETFE, very
slippery.

I think that’s actually what I know as Verowire or perhaps Speedwire. All
the wire-wrapping I’ve ever done was with the high temperature stuff which
won’t melt on a soldering iron. This can be good or bad, depending on how
you want to do the mods, but I find verowire more fragile than wire-wrap
wire.
