HT-1600 wire is a capacitor wire made of a special niobium-alloy developed for use in the capacitor industry.
Heraeus offers a temperature-stabilized Nb alloy that was designed especially for use as a connecting wire for chip capacitors. This alloy can be used with sinter temperatures up to 1800°C.
This high temperature resistant contact wire made of niobium is a lower-priced alternative to tantalum for capacitors in the electronics industry.
