Seems to be as described in the product description. There's nine cores of what acts like pre-tinned copper wire. Each core is made up of many fine strands that twist together easily and stay twisted. The strands do not burn away under high direct heat like fine aluminum wire. The insulation material feels and acts like silicone as well. They wire bends easily and will mostly hold their shape when bent.I stripped the nine cores back a bit and tried to tin them with a quality 60/40 solder @275c using a chisel tip. Without adding flux, the cores took a bit more time to tin than I'm used to compared with bare copper wire. Adding a bit of flux and they tinned much quicker/easier. At 275c, the insulation did not shrink or melt at all (the conductor core did transmit the heat rather well down it's length).Overall I'm pleased with the performance and would recommend this multi-conductor ribbon wire.

I like silicone-insulated wire like this because it can be soldered without melting the insulation back. This is well-made.Ribbon is very flexible and springy. Insulation held up over burner, no deterioration. Easy to cut between two wires and tear that section off for fewer conductors. Clean tear, no ragged edges between.I put 2A through length of one wire and measured 1.785V drop. Calculates to 27.21 ohms per 1000 ft. which corresponds to 24 gauge copper.Core measured 0.5mm, insulated wire 1.4mm. ~12.7mm ribbon width, so ~1.41mm conductor spacing.
