Medium/High size fretwire is for acoustic or electric guitar. Our Medium/High can often be redressed without becoming too flat. Instrument makers and repair shops rely on us for the highest quality 18% nickel-silver fretwire.
StewMac Fretwire is sold here in a single 2-foot straight piece. Order 6 feet for a complete guitar or bass fret job, and 4 feet for a mandolin, banjo or ukulele.
Fret Width: .095" (2.41mm)
Fret Crown: .045" (1.14mm)
Fret Tang Height: .073" (1.85mm)
Our fretwire is sized to fit a 0.023" (0.58mm) fret slot width.
Fretwire is made in a variety of crown heights. Note that after the frets are installed and leveled, they can lose from .004" to .010" in height. High fretwire has a crown height of .045" or more. It may offer more note sustain due to its slightly greater mass, and more fret dressings are possible between refrettings. Low fretwire is often useful for partial refret jobs.

As a professional luthier, I've used Stewmac products for many, many years. They always have what you need and respond quickly. Their online video tutorials are also very helpful. I miss the old catalog though.
