Sommerfeldt 181 Copper-coated contact wire, 0.5 x 200 mm, open (5 pieces)

181 Copper-Plated Contact Wire – Professional Overhead Wire System for Intricate Model Designs

The 181 copper-plated contact wire, measuring 0.5 x 200 mm, is the ideal solution for discerning model builders who want to create realistic and precise overhead wire systems. Thanks to its fine gauge and high-quality copper plating, this wire is particularly easy to work with and impresses with its stability and durability in model railroad applications. The wire comes in a convenient pack of 5—perfect for additions or repairs to your layout.

Precise Workmanship with Easy Handling

The extra-thin, copper-plated iron wire with a 0.5 mm diameter is optimized for manual processing. Using needle-nose pliers and side cutters, it can be precisely bent, shaped, and cut to length. This makes it ideally suited for delicate support structures, overhead wires, or custom wire suspensions in the overhead line area of model railroad layouts—especially in H0 scale.

Open ends for custom soldering connections

The open ends on both sides of the contact wire allow for flexible further processing and must be soldered. This ensures a stable, conductive connection to other overhead wire components such as poles or crossarms. The contact wire is particularly suitable for experienced model builders who value professional and custom-made overhead wire construction.
