I-Nichrome, eyaziwa ngokuba yi-nickel chrome, yi-alloy eveliswa ngokuxuba i-nickel, i-chromium kwaye, ngamanye amaxesha, isinyithi. Yaziwa kakhulu ngokuxhathisa ubushushu, kunye nokuchasa ukubola kunye ne-oxidation, i-alloy iluncedo kakhulu kwinani lezicelo. Ukususela kwimveliso yoshishino ukuya kumsebenzi wokuzilibazisa, i-nichrome ngendlela yocingo ikhona kwiimveliso zorhwebo, ubugcisa kunye nezixhobo. Ikwafumana izicelo kwiisethingi ezikhethekileyo.

I-Nichrome wire yi-alloy eyenziwe kwi-nickel kunye ne-chromium. Ichasa ukushisa kunye ne-oxidation kwaye isebenza njengento yokufudumala kwiimveliso ezifana ne-toasters kunye nezomisi zeenwele. IiHobbyists zisebenzisa i-nichrome wire kwi-ceramic sculpture kunye neglasi. Ucingo lunokufumaneka nakwiilabhoratri, ulwakhiwo kunye nee-elektroniki ezikhethekileyo.

Ngenxa yokuba ucingo lwe-nichrome luxhathisa kakhulu kumbane, luluncedo kakhulu njengento yokufudumeza kwiimveliso zorhwebo kunye nezixhobo zasekhaya. Ii-toaster kunye nezomisi beenwele zisebenzisa iikhoyili zocingo lwe-nichrome ukwenza ubushushu obuninzi, njengoko zenza ii-oveni ze-toaster kunye nezifudumezi zokugcina. Iziko zoshishino kwakhona zisebenzisa ucingo lwe-nichrome ukusebenza. Ubude bocingo lwe-nichrome bungasetyenziselwa ukwenza i-wire cutter eshushu, enokuthi isetyenziswe ekhaya okanye kwindawo yoshishino ukusika kunye nokubumba amagwebu athile kunye neeplastiki.

Ucingo lwe-Nichrome lwenziwe nge-alloy engeyiyo-magnetic eyenziwe ngokuyinhloko ye-nickel, i-chromium, kunye nentsimbi. I-Nichrome ibonakaliswe ngokuxhathisa kwayo okuphezulu kunye nokuchasana kakuhle kwe-oxidation. I-Nichrome wire nayo ine-ductility elungileyo emva kokusetyenziswa kunye nokuhamba okugqwesileyo.

Inombolo ezayo emva kohlobo lwentambo ye-Nichrome ibonisa ipesenti ye-nickel kwi-alloy. Umzekelo, "Nichrome 60" malunga 60% Nickel ekubunjweni kwayo.

Izicelo zocingo lwe-Nichrome ziquka izinto zokufudumeza zezomisi zeenwele, izitywini zokushisa, kunye nenkxaso ye-ceramic kwii-kilns.
