'Dead-Soft' refers to precious metal or gold filled jeweler's brass wire that has not been hardened at all in the manufacturing process. It's the most malleable type of wire, and is often used in designs needing multiple loops, bends, or complicated weaves. Only cold connections (wire wrapping, riveting, etc.) are recommended for joining gold filled wires. Gold filled welding requires advanced, professional skills and equipment, or the gold surface can be ruined.
There is approximately 12 feet per ounce in this spool of 18 gauge .040" (1.02mm) dead-soft round wire.
All wires are approximately 1.00 ozt (Troy Ounce). As coils or spools are made on automatic machine, weight may vary from 0.98 ozt to 1.02 ozt. We try our best to keep weight as close to 1.00 ozt as possible.
This wire is measured in Troy Ounce (OZT), not Ounce (OZ). For every 1.00 ozt, there is 1.10 oz.
