Description
Rectangular enamelled copper magnet wire
Rectangular enamelled copper magnet wire has a flat shape for winding and rewinding work. The XCS range combines copper with polyester imide–amide imide enamel insulation. This range has a Class C, 200°C, enamel coating.
Choose the wire size to match the winding design. The range contains 19 listed sizes, from 2.00 × 4.00 mm to 4.00 × 12.00 mm. Use the full CS part number to identify a size, because XCS is the parent SKU for the range.

Selecting wire for a winding
- Give the wire width, thickness and full part number.
- Check the enamel type and class against the winding design.
- State how much wire you need, in kilograms or reels.
- Confirm the reel weight before you place the order.
For example, 2.00X04.00CS identifies the listed 2.00 × 4.00 mm wire. Check both dimensions so that the wire matches the shape needed for the winding. If the design calls for round wire, compare our PE2 round enamelled copper magnet wire range.
When replacing a winding, take the size from the original design or job sheet. If the size needed is unclear, send a drawing with your enquiry. This gives our team the details needed to check the listed wire. Confirm the full wire details before choosing another size.
