Single-Core Hook-up Wire (5 Meter)

Description

The 18 AWG single-core hook-up wire is a fundamental building material for robust electronic prototyping and semi-permanent circuit construction. Featuring a solid copper core, this wire excels at holding its shape once bent, allowing students to create exceptionally neat and organised circuit layouts on breadboards and perfboards. Its thicker 18-gauge diameter provides excellent current-carrying capacity, making it the ideal choice for safely routing power to high-load components such as DC motors, stepper motors, and multi-channel relay modules. In an educational STEM environment, it is an invaluable resource for teaching best practices in cable management, electrical safety, and current rating limits. When transitioning from temporary jumper-wire prototypes to more permanent installations alongside development boards like the Arduino UNO and Magic Board, this wire ensures durable, reliable, and professional-looking power distribution.
