Nickel Plated Pteel Wire is a low carbon steel wire electroplated with nickel. It is used as the inner- lead component for lead-in-wires used in incadescent bulbs, fluoroscent tubes, halgen lamps, HID lamps, automotive, and other lamps. It is also used as a third wire to support the anode ring used in fluorescent tube lamps. NPS is also used for making music wire and for other applications that require corrosion resistance.
