Dead Soft Copper Wire 18 Gauge 213ft 99.9% Pure by Acuteye

Description

Product Overview

The Acuteye Dead Soft Copper Wire is engineered from 99.9% pure copper, delivering exceptional electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. At 18 gauge (1 mm) diameter, the wire spans 213 ft (64.92 m), providing ample length for a wide range of applications. Its dead‑soft characteristic means the material is highly ductile, allowing effortless bending, shaping, and trimming without breaking. The wire is completely uncoated, eliminating any insulation that could interfere with conductivity, making it ideal for projects that require direct metal contact.

Usage

This copper wire excels in electroculture, where its superior conductivity helps stimulate plant growth by delivering low‑level electrical currents to roots. Gardeners use it to create trellises, plant supports, and custom irrigation systems because the wire can be twisted, looped, and secured without losing its shape. In the jewelry making arena, the 18‑gauge size is perfect for crafting earrings, pendants, bracelets, and intricate wire‑wrapped designs. DIY enthusiasts also appreciate its versatility for small electronic repairs, prototype circuits, and decorative crafts.

FAQ

Can this wire be used for electrical wiring in homes?

While the wire offers high conductivity, it is uninsulated and intended for low‑voltage, hobbyist, and specialized applications such as electroculture, garden structures, and jewelry making. For household wiring, insulated, code‑approved cables should be used.

Is the wire suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The pure copper composition is naturally resistant to corrosion, making it well‑suited for outdoor garden projects, plant supports, and weather‑exposed decorative pieces.

How can I trim the wire to a specific length?

The dead‑soft nature of the wire allows you to cut it cleanly with standard wire cutters or scissors. The material will retain its flexibility and shape after trimming.

What is the difference between dead‑soft and hard copper wire?

Dead‑soft copper is highly ductile and bends easily, ideal for artistic and low‑stress applications. Hard copper is stiffer, offering greater tensile strength for structural or high‑current uses.

Do you offer other gauges or lengths?

Yes. Acuteye provides a range of gauges from 12 to 24 and various lengths to match different project requirements. Check our catalog for the full selection.
