A set of three common gauges of enameled magnet wire for winding transformers, chokes, motors, and electromagnet experiments. The thin enamel coating insulates each wire, allowing tight coil windings without short circuits.

Includes 22, 26, and 30 AWG spools — giving you the right gauge for a range of projects from power inductors to fine sensor coils.

Key Features

  • Three Gauges Included – 22, 26, and 30 AWG
  • Enamel Insulation – Thin coating for tight, compact windings
  • Copper Core – Standard magnet wire construction

Ideal For

  • Winding transformers and inductors
  • Building motors and electromagnets
  • Electromagnetism experiments and STEM projects
  • Custom coil and choke fabrication
Tip: Remove the enamel insulation at connection points using fine sandpaper, a hobby knife, or by carefully burning it off with an open flame.

Package Contents

  • 1× Spool 22 AWG Magnet Wire – 40 ft (~12 m)
  • 1× Spool 26 AWG Magnet Wire – 75 ft (~23 m)
  • 1× Spool 30 AWG Magnet Wire – 200 ft (~61 m)

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

AWG
American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
