I have a craft project in mind which call for 26 gauge wire mesh. Would this be comparable. TY Sharon

Hi Sharon, with out knowing the project your planning to use the wire on I can not answer your question. I can say from my experience that this Stainless steel wire worked great when I was making odd shape filters. It held its shape after many handlings. ..........Ron

It comes with 20 guage solid core wire as I recall, but will work with any size wire. I think that 16 to 18 gauge wire would be more durable.

18 gauge wire is what we used and it works just perfect. Hope this helps you with your decision.

Yes. Mine was 18 or 20 gage solid wire. I was told stranded wire will not work because it carries a radio transmission. I have it around 5 acres and it works perfect.

I used this device exclusively on 26 gauge wire and didn't need to adjust the adjustment screw at all. Assuming it wouldn't work as is on 28AWG, guessing it would if you adjusted the adjustment screw.

I think it depends on the gauge of wire that you use. the larger the wire the better.

The 12 gauge wire is really thick. It is about the thickness of a rubber hair tie. I think you need like 18 gauge or smaller. Wire is smaller as the gauge gets higher.

Look for the 'mesh' number in the description. As far as I can tell, it's pretty much the same as grit. The Particular item shows 1200 'mesh'.

Perhaps like only maybe 2 or 3.if it's 1 then you should be good.just try not to smoosh everything together in there or your wiremold might crack

I don't think so, very thin metal like soup can it works well. 16 gauge would be thicker.

The package doesn't say, I would say this is the same gauge as you find in any regular kit. I am not hanging my 6x6 mirror with it, but I have a few 2x4 canvas paintings and there is no stress on the wire. Sorry I can't be more specific.

The UL spec for the wire gauge is 16AWG. We ALWAYS meet or exceed the specification requirement. Anything thinner (such as 18AWG) may NOT meet the UL specifications.

Yes and yes,, subtle differences not enough to worry,, just be sure to check inside diameter of the tube and outside diameter of the wire.. yes and yes... more info than needed,, sorry..

I used an 8 gauge wire and it worked fine for me. Just make sure that it is actually 8 gauge of wire, a lot of the time wire gauge is falsely advertised.

I have two gauge in mine. That's prob. Pretty close to as big as it goes due to size of the connector that wire goes into.

I guess you could do that, but I'd be hesitant to install a 20 gauge fence. I hope that wire is at least meant for direct burial. But yeah, you could do it. I'd probably strip the 20 gauge bit twice as long and fold it in half then stick that and the 14 gauge part in the wire nut to make sure it has enough bite and fills the nut. If it still doesn't fill the nut, you could probably buy a smaller wire nut at Radio Shack or whatever and insert that into the splice instead, but I doubt you'd need to. If you don't currently have 20 gauge installed, I wouldn't do that unless you are going to use a very small area that never freezes or has sharp rocks or corrosive soil... even a small nick could corrode a thin wire like that to the point of failure fairly easily.

I work on aircraft and it's able to cut 24 gauge aluminum with no problem. Copper i think is softer... So it should work.
