NF32 Nickel Content 50-55 PTC Ni-Fe Alloy Wire For Temperature-Sensitive

Product Specification

NF32 Nickel Content 50-55 PTC Ni-Fe Alloy Wire for Temperature-Sensitive Applications, Resistance 0.32

The product exhibits a resistivity of 0.32 at a temperature of 20°C, with a tolerance range of ±0.02.

The PTC Ni-Fe alloy NF32 with 50%-55% nickel content is a nickel-iron alloy valued for its positive temperature coefficient (PTC) properties, which cause its electrical resistance to increase with rising temperature. This temperature-responsive behavior makes it ideal for applications requiring precise thermal regulation and self-limiting capabilities. The alloy’s moderate resistivity and stable thermal performance enable reliable operation over a wide range of temperatures, making it especially useful in temperature-sensitive applications.

Commonly used in components such as temperature sensors, thermistors, and self-regulating heating elements, the Ni-Fe alloy’s PTC properties allow it to provide automatic temperature control and protection. Its corrosion resistance and durability in high-temperature environments also make it suitable for use in harsh industrial, automotive, and aerospace conditions. Additionally, this alloy finds applications in overcurrent protection devices and battery management systems, where its resistance changes help prevent overheating and ensure safe operation.

With its unique combination of PTC behavior, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance, Ni-Fe alloy NF32 with 50%-55% nickel content serves as a versatile and reliable material for advanced thermal management, self-regulating heating, and safety applications across multiple industries.
