KA1 28G this wire is really good for my bridges I can twist a 1ohm coil with ease although it is too thin to work on some because of the post screws won't secure it properly and it ends up loose, but that is no fault of the wire. Also, if I accidently let go of the spool it will unravel, no biggie since I just keep it in the bag it came in

Great wire & company
The wire is great quality packaging is nice and shipping to delivery is very fast. The price of different gauges of wire and types im is very affordable. My only con would be the slit on the spool to hold the wire for 28guage and up could be little smaller. But will be ordering from this site only.
