Bare Aluminium Armature Wire - 0.56mm - 4.55mm Diameters

Aluminium craft wire suitable for use in jewellery work, armature building, and general model making using clays or plasticine.

Our aluminium wires start with the fine 0.71mm gauge and go up to the robust 4.55mm. Soft and easy to work with even the 2mm wire can be easily cut with a pair of scissors and the 3.25mm cut with 'some effort'.

Where greater strength / load bearing and rigidity is required such as larger model making with clays etc. we have galvanised steel wire in 1.25mm and 2mm gauges. These wires offer considerably more strength than the aluminium (the 1.25mm galvanised is for example about as strong as the 3.25mm aluminium) but are harder to form and usually require wire cutters.

Note: the 4.55mm comes in lengths of 5m, so 10m comes as 2 x 5m lengths and 20m comes as 4 x 5m lengths
