This is soft copper round wire for jewelry making, metalsmithing, binding and general shop use. It is pure copper in a soft temper, so it bends and wraps easily. The surface is clean and responds well to forming.
The round profile gives consistent bends and clean wraps. It comes in 4 troy ounce coils (80 dwt). Coil length varies by gauge, because heavier gauges give fewer feet per troy ounce.
