      All:

      Can nickel silver wire (10 gauge) be hardened by heating and quenching?

      Thanks!

        This chart doesnt say anything about hardening but it does show an annealing temperature of 600-825°C . 😯

          Hi Tom and Paul,
          Nickel silver wire can be work harden (cold working) but not by heat treating.
          That’s an interesting link Paul. They seem to have a good selection of wire.

            Found it completely by accident while trying to google Toms question :)
