Nichrome Wire

Price range: $3.50 through $4.20

Nichrome Wire is used in the film industry primarily for its resistance to high temperatures and its ability to conduct electricity.

Often used in pyrotechnics and special effects to create sparks, ignite explosives, or trigger other effects that require high heat. Its ability to generate heat when an electric current passes through it makes it ideal for these purposes.
In scenes requiring controlled smoke or fire, Nichrome wire can be used to ignite smoke cartridges or other materials safely and reliably.
