Frequently Asked Questions

What are the specifications of the RRP-C-105 wire?
ā–¶
The RRP-C-105 is a 0.15 mm diameter insulated copper wire with a gold/copper enamel coating, supplied in packs of 4 bobbins, each containing approximately 20 m of wire.

What type of insulation and standards compliance does it have?
ā–¶
It features a self-fluxing polyurethane enamel insulation that conforms to IEC 60317-0-1, making it solderable and providing reliable dielectric protection.

What soldering temperature is required to remove the enamel?
ā–¶
Use a soldering iron set between 400 – 430 °C (Weller bit codes 8 or 9) to burn off the enamel coating and expose the copper for soldering.

What are the ideal applications for gold/copper coloured wire?
ā–¶
Gold/copper insulated wire is perfect for adding a professional finish, marking power or ground lines, and providing clear contrast in multi-colour wiring harnesses during prototyping and repairs.

What are the thermal ratings and safety considerations?
ā–¶
The enamel insulation is rated for continuous use up to +120 °C. Always maintain proper soldering temperatures to prevent wire damage, and organize wiring to avoid short circuits.
