Magnet Wire

Insulated copper or aluminum wire used for winding coils, motors and transformers and other coils for electromagnetic devices. Also known as winding wire, it has a relatively thin layer of high performance insulation that allows the wire to be formed very tightly, which leads to increased coil effectiveness and electrical efficiency.
