CUSTOM LITZ WIRE

Send us frequency and current
We calculate the strand count — free

Custom litz wire (served / twisted enameled): strand diameter 0.05–0.50 mm, thermal class 130–220, built from your drawing or physical sample. Trial and prototype quantities are welcome. Quote with the strand calculation, usually within 48 hours.

What we can build

From single strand diameter to batch lead time, in one table

CategoryCapability
Litz wire · strand diameter0.05–0.50 mm (high-frequency builds typically 0.05–0.10)
Litz wire · strand count20–1000+ strands, calculated from operating frequency
Litz wire · insulationPolyurethane (QA) / polyester-imide (QZY) / polyamide-imide (QXY) / self-bonding
Thermal class130 / 155 / 180 / 200 / 220
ConstructionSingle bunched or multi-bundle (re-twisted), served / yarn-covered outer protection
Lead time7–10 days standard constructions; re-twisted within 15 days — confirmed in writing before order
Worked example: 0.1 mm × 3500 strands @ 440 kHz Total copper section 27.49 mm², DC resistance 0.627 mΩ/m, finished OD approx. 7.3 mm. Under natural cooling in a winding, the continuous current rating is 80 A (90 A absolute max), i.e. 2.9–3.3 A/mm². Thermal checks and ampacity confirmation of this kind are included free at the selection stage.
HOW IT WORKS

Choosing strands, in four steps

Send us these four inputs and we do the rest — or run the rough numbers yourself

1 · Frequency → strand dia.

Set the single-strand diameter on the skin-depth scale of your operating frequency. Higher frequency, finer strand.

2 · Current → copper section

Set total copper cross-section from rated current; 3–6 A/mm² is typical at high frequency, tightened against your temperature-rise target.

3 · Section → strand count

Total cross-section ÷ single-strand area = strand count, rounded up to a standard construction.

4 · Check the geometry

Verify the bunched outer diameter and slot fill factor — it must fit and wind cleanly.

APPLICATIONS

Where custom litz wire earns its keep

Wireless power

TX / RX coils in litz wire — lower AC loss from skin effect at high frequency.

Induction heating

Custom high-frequency work coils, thermal-shock resistant insulation systems.

HF transformers

Switch-mode power supply and inverter transformer windings.

Precision inductors

Compact, repeatable windings for sensors and small-batch instruments.
