Default 26 gauge solid wire

Anyone know where can I find some 26 gauge solid conductor insulated wire in black and red?

TIA

Would recommend against the solid wire. Susceptable to vibration fatigue - stranded holds up much better.

These wires are for an electric indoor micro plane. No vibration. Besides I need the solid wire to work as a plug to the receiver.

Perhaps you could "tin" (solder) the end of the stranded wire to use as the plug? Otherwise I don't know a source for single strand 26ga.

good luck, Rob

Yes I could tin the end of the stranded wires. I have obtained adequate supply from Dynamic Web.

No I extend those with mag wire. I use the solid 26 gauge to make plugs to plug in the receiver. I also use the wire to make motor and battery wire.
