This bare copper wire is suitable for use in crafts or for electrical grounding wire use. This single-strand wire is annealed for improved ductility and meets QQ-W-343 standards for uninsulated copper wire. It also meets ASTM B3 standards for annealed copper wire and complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) regulations. This copper wire is suitable for use in crafts such as jewelry and weaving or for uninsulated wiring applications.Electrical wire carries an electric current or grounds an electrical device. The amount of current a wire can carry is proportional to its size (gauge), and the wire is generally sheathed with coatings and coverings to insulate and protect it from moisture, chemicals, heat, and abrasion. Copper is the primary material for electrical wire, but alloys are sometimes used to increase its strength or its resistance to chemicals and the environment. Wire can be composed of a single strand or of many smaller strands, depending on its use, and is typically annealed to improve its ductility. Electrical wire is commonly used in industrial, electronic, and automotive applications.

This copper wire is perfect for wire-wrapping or forging jewelry.
When I am working with copper, I now buy only wire from this supplier. The price per foot is hard to beat, especially while learning or creating prototype pieces to perfect designs. It is tarnish-resistant, consistent in quality and I find these spools easy to store and use. When I transfer this wire to kumihimo bobbins, they are easily labeled and become light and portable. I put a full range of wire sizes in a ziplock bag and am good to go anywhere.

wrong size
Purchased the AWG 30 wire (0.010" diameter), received a spool of AWG 14 wire (0.064" diameter) with a sticker covering the original label.

Recommended!
Excellent and no issues using this or heat problems as electrical wiring for small hobbyist projects <5W. No issues with any clear coating needing to be scratched off before use either. This is also surprisingly strong when you tug on it (it must hold over 5-10lbs or so of weight no problem) although I am not a wire-wrapping guru. Would buy many times over.

Bright and easy to work with
The product arrived quickly allowing to finish up my art projects. The wire is smooth and untarnished. Very fine which makes excellent branches.

Bare wire review
The wire was just what I was looking for. The price was right and the quality is excellent. Buying in bulk is the only way.

DO NOT BUY!!!! YOU WILL GET THE WRONG ITEM
The spools are all mislabeled. I received the wrong gauge for both the original and replacement shippment. 10 AWG instead of 30.
