The Tubothal Heating Elements-250 are made of a special iron-chromium-aluminium wire called AF-wire.
The AF wire has some advantages over the conventional nickel-chrome wire.
The AF-wire has a much longer lifetime and can withstand higher operating temperatures than the nickel-chrome wire. Another advantage is that the heating elements made of AF-wire can be repaired which is difficult to do with nickel chrome wire. The most important advantage of the AF-wire is that in inert gas atmospheres with CO NO poisonous "green rot" is formed
Dimensions
In the picture above you can see the toxic "green rot" on nickel chrome wires.
