Question:

Is the resistance of metal wire plastic increased when it is plastically deformed?

Is the resistance of metal wire plastic increased when it is plastically deformed?

Answer:

Steel wire has a wide range of uses. It can be used to make manganese phosphating coating, steel wire rope, galvanized steel strand and steel cord, etc..
When the steel is cold working, the plastic deformation will increase the dislocation and the resistance will increase slightly. Aluminum wire and copper wire processing at room temperature is also hot processing, will not increase the resistance, for reference purposes only
