Amigo Impex is a nickel wire manufacturer, supplier, stockist and exporter based in Mumbai, India, operating since 2013. The range covers commercially pure nickel wire in two grades, Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) and Nickel 201 (UNS N02201), in diameters from 0.025 mm to 25.00 mm. Both grades have a minimum of 99.0 per cent nickel + cobalt, with carbon being the differentiator in their chemistry.
Nickel 200 is permitted a maximum of 0.15% carbon, while Nickel 201 is limited to a maximum of 0.02% carbon. Nickel 201 is chosen for applications demanding long exposure to temperatures over 315°C because its lower carbon content minimises the possibility of graphitisation. Nickel wire is also prized for its corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and ferromagnetic behaviour below its Curie temperature.
Nickel wire is available in a variety of states ranging from soft annealed to full hard. Matte and bright finishes are available on bare, uncoated round wire. Fine diameters are provided on spools and bigger gauges are available in coils or cut lengths. Custom diameters can also be checked against the drawing and the appropriate specification. Our Mumbai plant does the cutting, testing and packing in-house.
Ready stock of approximately 60 to 70 tonnes supports urgent orders, with stock items generally dispatched within 1 to 2 days. Made-to-order diameters typically require around 30 days, depending on the specification. Pricing is quoted per kilogram through dated offers. Each lot is supplied with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate, with 3.2 certification available when specified. Supply covers pan-India, with exports to the USA, Gulf, Europe and Asia.
Grade, diameter, temper, finish and supply format determine the requirements for each nickel wire order. The table below summarises the standard supply range, while requirements outside these parameters are reviewed before quotation.
Dimensional and property requirements for wrought nickel wire are taken from DIN 17753:2002. Diameters above 10 mm are supplied to the specification stated on the purchase order.
Commercially pure nickel wire is supplied against the applicable wire standards. These standards define requirements for nickel and nickel alloy wire, while EN 10204 covers the inspection documentation provided with the material.
| Standard | Origin | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| DIN 17753 | Germany | Wrought nickel and nickel alloy wire: requirements and testing |
| GB/T 21653 | China | Nickel and nickel alloy wire, including N4 and N6 |
| EN 10204 | Europe | Inspection documentation, including 3.1 certificates |
The nickel wire range comprises two commercially pure grades: Nickel 200 and Nickel 201. Both provide high nickel content and good resistance to corrosive environments, while their different carbon limits determine where each wire nickel grade is best suited.
Nickel 200 wire has a maximum carbon content of 0.15% and is widely used for electrical, battery, chemical-processing and caustic-service applications. Its combination of nickel content, corrosion resistance and electrical properties makes it suitable for general-purpose nickel wire requirements.
Nickel 201 wire has a maximum carbon content of 0.02%. The lower carbon limit makes the grade suitable for applications involving prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures, where resistance to graphitisation is important.
Nickel wire is available in different forms according to diameter, application, condition and supply format. The principal types include:
Nickel-plated wire, nickel-copper alloy wire and nickel chromium wire fall outside this commercially pure range. Welding filler wire is also a separate product. ERNi-1 filler metal, also known as Filler Metal 61, is supplied under AWS A5.14 as UNS N02061 with 93.0% nickel minimum and 2.0 to 3.5% titanium, and is not interchangeable with Nickel 200 or Nickel 201 wire.
Packaging is selected according to wire diameter, supply format and destination. Fine nickel wire is supplied on protected spools and packed in suitable cartons, while heavier coils are secured with wrapping and strapping. Straightened cut lengths can be packed in lined cases when additional protection is required during transport.
Each package is identified with the grade, heat number, diameter and applicable specification. Custom marking can also be provided when specified in the order. Domestic consignments are dispatched across pan-India from Mumbai, while export shipments are prepared for the USA, Gulf, European and Asian markets.
Each nickel wire lot undergoes the applicable chemical analysis, positive material identification and dimensional inspection before packing. Tensile properties are evaluated according to the specified grade, diameter and temper, as mechanical properties can vary with the delivered condition.
Third-party inspection can be arranged when required by the purchase order. Every consignment is supplied with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate, while 3.2 certification can be provided when specified. We hold AS 9120B, PED, ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications.

Nickel wire is used for battery tabs, electronic lead wires, heating-element connections, thermocouple and sensor components, woven mesh and chemical-processing applications. Nickel 200 is widely used for general electrical and caustic-service requirements, while Nickel 201 is selected where the lower carbon limit is important at elevated temperatures.
Nickel wire is available in diameters from 0.025 mm to 25.00 mm. Fine sizes are suitable for applications such as electronic and battery components, while larger diameters can be supplied for mesh, fabrication and other industrial requirements. Sizes outside the standard range can be reviewed for production to order.
Amigo Impex supplies Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) and Nickel 201 (UNS N02201). Both grades have a minimum nickel plus cobalt content of 99.0%. The principal difference is carbon content: Nickel 200 permits up to 0.15%, while Nickel 201 limits carbon to 0.02%.
Yes, nickel wire can be supplied against an AWG requirement where the corresponding metric diameter is confirmed. Customers should state the required gauge, grade, temper and quantity so the appropriate diameter can be reviewed before quotation.
Nickel wire is available from soft annealed through quarter hard, half hard, three-quarter hard and full hard conditions, subject to the required diameter and specification. Matte and bright finishes are available on bare, uncoated round wire. Softer conditions are generally selected where forming is required, while harder conditions provide greater strength and shape retention.
Copper is usually the choice when maximum electrical conductivity and cost-effectiveness are the primary requirements. Nickel wire is used where the application demands higher resistance to corrosive environments, caustic media, elevated temperatures, or specialised joining and manufacturing requirements. Material selection should be based on specific service conditions.
Nickel wire pricing reflects the cost of the nickel raw material base as well as drawing, processing, testing and finishing requirements. Fine-diameter wire requires additional drawing passes and tighter process controls, which increases conversion costs compared with heavier sections.
Nickel wire is used in applications where corrosion resistance, electrical performance, temperature resistance and controlled mechanical properties are important. Major application sectors include:
