Single-core hookup wire is a fundamental building block for electronics prototyping, providing flexible point-to-point connections between components on breadboards, perfboards, and custom PCBs. Available in both solid and stranded forms, it suits a range of connection and flexibility requirements.
The range covers common AWG gauges suitable for signal and low-current power wiring, available in multiple colours to support colour-coded wiring conventions. Solid core wire is ideal for breadboard insertion, while stranded wire is better suited to connections that require repeated flexing.
Single-core wire is used extensively in Arduino and Raspberry Pi prototyping, sensor wiring, breadboard circuit construction, DIY PCB point-to-point wiring, STEM education lab work, and any application where a simple, lightweight conductor is needed to make reliable electrical connections.
