22 AWG Solid Hook-Up Wire
Electronix Express supplies a 25-foot spool of solid tinned-copper hook-up wire in a 22 AWG gauge. The orange insulation carries a 300 V rating and is intended for low-voltage point-to-point wiring. Hobbyists, students and technicians building breadboard circuits or repairing small appliances will find the length practical for bench work.
Behaviour under sustained load
Solid conductors hold their shape when routed through tight channels, reducing the risk of loose strands that can migrate under vibration. The tinned copper resists oxidation during long-term exposure to humidity or flux residue. Insulation remains stable at the rated 300 V, so the wire does not soften or degrade when circuits run continuously at nominal voltage.
Build quality and daily use
Each spool delivers a consistent orange hue, though the exact shade may vary between production runs. The solid core makes clean, repeatable bends for header pins and perf-board layouts without spring-back. Tinned ends accept solder immediately, speeding up prototyping and repair tasks on the bench.

Questions about this item
Does the 22 AWG solid tinned copper wire generate noticeable heat when carrying continuous current near its 300V rating?
At 22 AWG the solid tinned copper conductor is designed for low-current signal and control circuits; heat rise stays minimal within the 300V insulation rating during normal all-day operation.
What tools or connectors must I already have to terminate this 22 AWG solid hook-up wire?
You will need a 22 AWG wire stripper, a crimp tool or soldering iron, and terminals or connectors rated for solid 22 AWG tinned copper.
Can I mix this 22 AWG solid orange wire with older stranded hook-up wire in the same harness?
Yes, the 300V insulation and tinned copper conductor are electrically compatible with legacy stranded wire of the same gauge, though bend radius and termination methods differ.
