I use them for piping and hand rails on brass HO locomotives I build. They are much smaller and stronger than the smallest brass rod (.020) you can get , guitar strings get down to about .005 and are tough! The heavy wrapped strings make great "glad hand " type air hose connectors on locomotives too.
