Brass Wire (100 gm)
Product Code : SCL-EAE-11209
Quick answer: Brass Wire (100 g) is a spool of copper-zinc alloy wire for physics practicals. It is cut to length for sonometer standing-wave experiments, thermal expansion and elasticity studies, and for comparing the resistance of different metals and alloys. It resists atmospheric corrosion better than iron or steel wire. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and universities.

Uses
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It conducts electricity less well than pure copper but far better than resistance alloys such as nichrome, it is stiffer than copper, and it does not rust. These properties make it a handy general-purpose wire for mechanics, heat, sound and electricity practicals.
- Mount the spool on a rod or stand so that it turns freely.
- Pull out the length needed for the experiment, keeping the wire straight.
- Cut cleanly with wire cutters and straighten any kinks before use.
- Measure the diameter at several points with a screw gauge if the experiment needs the cross-section.
Typical experiments include standing waves and the frequency-tension law on a sonometer, linear expansion in a steam jacket, Young's modulus and elasticity, and resistivity comparisons with copper, manganin, constantan and nichrome wires.
