Wire sizes
Just by way of clarification the
first number refers to the number of strands within each multi-strand wire and
the second number (0.2) is the diameter of each strand.
Try to avoid using solid cored wires on your layout as they will break if
bent backwards and forwards too many times. Solid cored wire can be used
where the wire needs to hold its shape.

Railwayscenics policy is only to designate a product as RoHS compliant when
we are confident that the product is fully compliant. We use a simple "Yes" and "No"
designation on our web site and the meaning of
these designations is as follows:
RoHS Compliant YES
Based on information provided by our suppliers, this product does NOT contain
the substances restricted by the RoHS legislation at levels over the maximum
concentration values.
RoHS Compliant NO
Based on information provided by our suppliers, this product contains the
substances restricted by the RoHS legislation at levels over the maximum
concentration values.
No RoHS Designation
Products that are outside the scope of the RoHS legislation and products for
which we do not have enough information from our suppliers to confidently
confirm their RoHS compliance status have no designation on our web site.
Customers that wish to purchase a RoHS compliant version of any product that is
not designated as RoHS compliant YES should contact our sales office or check
available alternatives on our web site as we may be able to provide a suitable
product from our extensive range. |
