Kanthal or scientifically known as Ferritic Iron Chromium Alloy (FeCrAl) is a type of wire that has a bright annealed and oxidized surface. Some of its characteristics are:
Having high consistent resistivity along with an amazing oxidation resistance
High resistivity
Having a high maximum operating temperature (i.e. 1500° C or 2730°F)
These wires can last up to 4 times more than any nichrome as it has a superior ability that allows them to resist oxidation. It also makes them one of the most popular coils in the market.
Nichrome is a type of alloy that comes with corrosion-resistance characteristics. 80% Nickel and 20% Chromium is one of the most common combinations. The other applications include:
Heats up rapidly and gives very little ramp-up time
Has managed to become the most popular choice of wires for a variety of e-cig coils
Has a lower melting temperature (1400°C or 2462°F)
The maximum operating temperate is much lower for this wire
On the other hand, it can also mean that nichrome coil will have a shorter life span than Kanthal coils. However, the temperature can sometimes be ignored as most devices never actually exceed the melting point.
In case you are on the lookout for the ultimate and the greatest ramp up performer, pure nickel wire should always be your preference. Also known as Ni200, this one has virtually zero resistance which in turn means that it gets heated up really fast. It can be considered a blessing as well as a curse as you will have to be very careful when using nickel so that you avoid melting. Nickel can be quite fatal at high temperatures. Nickel allergy is also an issue. If you are suffering from it, you should avoid this vape wire at all costs. That said, Ni200 actually provides an amazing flavorful vape. It is really easy to work with â subtle and pliable but it doesn't hold its shape that well. After going through wick changes, the wire becomes completely deformed and needs to be replaced.
