Rea Magnet Wire Bondables
Reabond A, Reabond B, and Reabond S
Bondable Magnet wire allows winding of bobbinless, self-supporting coils which may yield operational cost savings or provide capabilities in the manufacturing of unique and difficult coil configurations.Reabond has a high resoftneing temperature of outer cement allows this product to compete with many varnish impregnated heavy grade magnet wires.
Typical applications Reabond is found in consist of Self supporting coils, Inductors, Motors, Voice coils, yoke coils, and clutches.
Magnet Wire 101
Magnet wire or winding wire is insulated copper or aluminum wire. The wire can be round, square, or rectangular and it is the insulation materials and their respective builds which give each wire types its unique thermal, mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties.
Rea Products
Magnet wire sizes are based on the diameter of the bare wire and typical builds for motor applications range from a sinlge build construction build, triplebuild, and even quad build constructions as seen in the chart. Howeever, you are not limited to these builds as Rea can produce unique constructions such as minimum to nominal builds,JIS, or IEC builds to meet your needs.
