If you need tiny, straight tempered wire, this is it! If you're not sure what size (how tiny), this assortment should do nicely. Definitely good stuff.

I bought these stainless steel rods specifically for one purpose: to clear the broken lead stuck in my 0.3 mm mechanical pencil. The broken lead was stuck in the retractable 0.3 mm diameter metal tip, and I had nothing that thin to try to clear the stuck lead. This steel rod set had among many other diameters the 0.3 mm rod which I successfully used to get the broken lead out and get my mechanical pencil working again. So I am satisfied that the job I purchased the set for was done. There are a few items worth mentioning here which go beyond my limited and specific application. The first thing is that the description of the item said it contained 156 pieces, but the steel rod set that I received had a label on the plastic tube containing the rods which said 131 pieces. I didn't actually bother to count these rods to make sure whether that was correct or not, but the set contained many rods of various diameters and they seemed to match the general description of the steel rod set. Of course, to me, the only real diameter which mattered was the 0.3 mm diameter and I could see several of these rods of that diameter. The bottom line here is that I paid around 16 cents a rod and I was OK with that. Secondly, several reviewers had complained about some sticky tape used to group together the various diameter sizes in their orders. Well, the set that I received didn't have any tapes or other means of separating the rods of various diameters. They were all put together loosely in a plastic tube which served to protect the rods in transport. While the lack of individual grouping made counting and identification of various rod diameters more difficult, but on the other hand, it had the benefit of not having to deal with adhesive residue left over from the sticky tape. And finally, several reviewers have complained about the actual material the rods might be made of. In other words, they have questioned whether the rods are 'spring' steel. As I am not so well-versed in the metallurgical or material sciences, I have no way of ascertaining or disputing these complaints. What I can say is that the rods feel and look like stainless steel. Whether they are in fact stainless steel (or even steel at all), and if they are steel, whether they are 'spring' steel is a rather scientifically oriented determination which I am afraid is beyond my abilities and focus. But in closing I can say that these rods (and specifically the 0.3 mm ones) did the work I needed them to do. On that basis, I will have no hesitation in buying this steel rod set again.

This is a very nice assortment and had the correct size I needed to replace a lost spring. However, I believe the description is incorrect. The wire sizes should have the decimal point moved to the left one position, i.e. 0.02mm 0.03mm 0.04mm 0.05mm 0.06mm 0.08mm 1mm 0.12mm 0.14mm 0.16mm 0.18mm 0.2mm 0.3mm. The wire I needed measured 0.005-inches which converts to 0.12mm so the description is incorrect.

A good mix of sizes for model building hobby use.

I bought these wires to have a selection of material to make springs. They work and I don't have any complaints about the resulting springs. However, there is a problem (not the fault of the material). Because the lengths are all the same, there will rarely be a perfect match of length to need. So, after making a couple of springs, I also bought some rolls of a couple of diameters. In particular, I needed some springs that could be made longer. Having the set of fixed length wires along with a couple of rolls gives me some good options.

I had a broken spring in a turn signal stalk and they wanted $350 to replace the entire stalk. With this wire, I was able to manufacture replacement springs for under $20. It works great. The spring wire is easy to manipulate with a set of spring pliers and it holds it shape well. Absolutely what I needed. Everything is fixed now.

WARNING!!! This is not spring steel, more like polished tin. Takes a permanent bend very easily. One star is being generous.

It may not be "spring steel' and it may not be guitar strings but it's perfect for use in model building and that's all I care about. Five stars.

Good selection. Note these are NOT stainless but are tempered steel piano wire as I expected (magnetic). Perfect for small projects.

Gute Auswahl an dünnen Edelstahl Federdrähten für meinen Modellbau. Da hab ich immer die richtige Stärke zur Hand.

Exactamente lo anunciado, auque como comentario yo lo enviaria separado por diametros

There are way too many thin strips compared to thicker. Only 1 each for 1.8-, 2- and 3mm, could have included less of the thinner ones to balance this kit.

Il filo d'acciaio ideale per lavori in cui si deve dare una forma che resta. In totale ci sono156 pezzi di 40CM. Le misure sono 13 e vanno da 0.2mm a 3mm. Nella foto si è tentato di farne vedere nell'insieme. Attenzione alcuni sono veramente molto molto sottili. Se Non si ha idea chiara di come utilizzarli, avere un mix simile ti aiuta a capire cosa ti è più utile. Poi sceglierai la misura adatta alle tue lavorazioni, alle tue esigenze. Come vedrete nella foto i fili sono veramente ben chiusi e protetti in un cilindro rigido. Non scontato un packaging così curato.
