It is also used in much smaller LV transformers such as filament and
welders.

Try a large transformer shop. 5kw and up transformers often use it. I've
bought round magnet wire from temcoindustrialpower.com, but don't see
rectangular wire on the web site, so give them a call for a link.

I know this may be a little off topic BUT.... I am looking for some
flat wired to wind an edge wound inductor. I am guessing that it
needs to be something like an eight of an inch on the narrow side by
maybe three eights of in inch on the long or flat side. This will
allow my roller wheel to ride on the inside of the inductor to
change inductance.
Now for the rub. I cant find anyone that makes wire like this. I
know it is made because others have made inductors using this kind
of wire. Oh and it has to be silver plated if possible.
These coils are to be part of a balanced tuner and yes I know I can
purchase coils but I want consistency since I am going to build
several of these units.
Any and all help appreciated.
Thanks Jim WA3MEJ
