K & S Precision Metals Music Wire, Spring Steel, 0.156 in.Dia, PK7, 5/32" x 36" (508)

As advertised

Came VERY well packaged as 5 bundles of 4 wires each in a single sealed sleeve, packed in a plastic tube with other empty packaging around it within a large cardboard box meant to keep the wires from getting bent. Measured exactly 0.039" diameter x 36" long.

Th diameter of the wire was exactly as indicated. K&S is the place to go.

product is as advertised - 15 pcs. 0.062 dia. * 36" long.Hardened & difficult to cut with dikes. Used Dremmel tool with cut-off wheel with excellent results

Years ago, the clock-like spiral spring (yellow arrow showing where it used to be) broke on our bird feeder. I tried various methods (rubber bands, etc.) to perform the same function, which is to close access to the food when weight is placed on the perch by squirrels, etc. I used this 0.02 diameter music wire to make an expansion spring. The construction method involved a method found on YouTube, where the wire is wound around a dowel inserted in a power drill. It has been a few weeks since I installed the spring, and it continues to work great. No loss of "springiness." The thinner wire worked where a thicker wire probably would have been too strong.

Exactly as order. Solid product

I got 15 wires in a ridiculously big box.

I am using this to make smaller tools with it. You get quite a bit for the price. A file skates on it, so it is hard. Appears to have been well annealed as it is not brittle. Careful grinding, so as not to draw the temper, makes it pretty easy to work with. Good quality stuff for my needs.

They are what I expected to receive.

I make springs out of it. It works, and it's made in the US which is great. At least it says so on the package.
