How to order "bodge wire" at Farnell

[bernroth]

Hello!

Maybe this question is a bit silly but what is the correct technical term for "bodge wire"?
I would like to order some to fix Cisco routers and I want it to make look like an authentic manufacturers "bodge".

Attached a picture of that wire.
A Farnell product number would be great

Cheers,
Bernhard

And if you dont already have a good quality hot melt gun it is time to get one.

As we have wire experts here, I have a question : where can I buy "bus bar" wire ?
It's like regular wire, except it is full metal. It looks like large gauge solder wire, except it won't melt.
Commonly used in tube amps, for tubes heaters connections or to connect grounds of input or output jacks.

Specialty store sells it (example: http://www.ampmaker.com/store/Bare-bus-wire.html) but I'm looking for greater quantity (100ft).

Same place Farnell, Hook up wire, search for Jacket Material = unjacketed (no idea how it is in French, desolé) or just bus bar. It is kinda expansive.

Also known as wire wrapping wire

To thicken up traces I'd use normal solid copper 1,5mm² or 2,5mm² house installation wire (NYM) with removed isolation.

Thinner wires like "round wire" are available but I don't have a order number (just some rolls of them in the bin - they last forever).
It's solid copper with silver coating.

The label says in German "Runddraht 1kg 0,2mm²"

I tried "unjacketed wire" in search with no good result.
However "bare bus wire" works just fine with Mouser or Farnell.
I wonder why I didn't try that before and had to ask the question here.
Seems trivial in retrospect.

Indeed, that's quite expensive, 100ft 22awg is same price (if not more) than the regular wire equivalent.
With Mouser, it is actually possible to buy silver bare bus wire!

Silver coated. Unfortunately Farnell France and Wallonia started translating stuff, including names of the components, no way to set it english. How idiotic is that.

The electronics suppliers are far more expensive than they should be.
Try the same search on Amazon or similar sites.

tinned copper wire - is what your calling bus bar wire.

This is why you don't buy bus wire for occasional use. Unless you're using it by the mile, it doesn't make any sense.

Buy the same gauge kynar wrapping wire. The insulation is very thin and compact. The solid copper conductor is silver plated. It strips like nothing. And sometimes you will want the insulation on there.
