21700 8P Pure Nickel Strip - 0.20mm Thick

21700 8P Pure Nickel Strip - 0.20mm Thick Pre-cut pure nickel strip designed for building straight 21700 8P parallel cell groups. Each strip is sized for eight 21700 cells arranged side by side and provides a clean, repeatable conductor for spot-welding parallel connections. The pre-cut format helps reduce measuring, trimming, and material waste during battery-pack assembly. Sold individually so builders can order the exact quantity needed for 6S8P, 10S8P, 12S8P, custom, repair, or test builds. Key Features Designed for straight 21700 8P cell groups Made from pure nickel 0.20mm thickness Pre-cut for repeatable battery-pack assembly Suitable for spot welding Helps simplify parallel-group construction Useful for electric skateboard and modular EV battery packs Sold by individual piece Quantity Quantity 1 = one pre-cut 21700 8P pure nickel strip. Examples: Quantity 12 = enough for one 6S8P pack Quantity 20 = enough for one 10S8P pack Quantity 24 = enough for one 12S8P pack Quantity 30 = enough for one 12S8P pack with six spare strips Order extra pieces for test welds, spot-welder setup, misalignment, damaged material, repairs, or future maintenance. How Many Pieces Do I Need? Each nickel strip is designed for one straight 21700 8P parallel group. Each 21700 8P parallel group typically uses: 1 strip on the positive side 1 strip on the negative side 2 strips total per parallel group Typical quantities: 6S8P battery pack: 12 strips 10S8P battery pack: 20 strips 12S8P battery pack: 24 strips Suggested quantities with spares: 6S8P build: 14–16 strips 10S8P build: 22–24 strips 12S8P build: 26–30 strips These quantities cover the pre-cut 8P parallel-group strips. Your complete battery design may require additional nickel, copper, wire, or other conductive material for series connections and main current paths. Common Applications These strips are commonly used for: 6S8P battery packs 10S8P battery packs 12S8P battery packs Modular 21700 battery builds Electric skateboard batteries Drift-cart and lightweight EV battery packs Repairing or rebuilding damaged parallel groups Spot-welding practice and testing Specifications Cell size: 21700 Parallel-group format: Straight 8P Material: Pure nickel Thickness: 0.20mm Format: Pre-cut strip Application: Parallel cell-group connections Quantity: Sold individually Important Fitment Note This strip is intended for a straight eight-cell 21700 layout. Before ordering, confirm: Cell diameter Cell spacing Strip dimensions Terminal alignment Pack layout Spot-welder capability Required current capacity Do not assume compatibility based only on the term “8P.” Different holders, spacing, and battery layouts may require different strip dimensions. Parallel and Series Connections Each strip is designed to connect one 8P parallel group. A complete battery pack may require additional conductive material for: Series connections Main positive and negative terminals BMS wiring Balance leads Fuse connections Custom current paths The exact conductor system depends on the battery architecture and current requirements. Installation Before spot welding: Confirm all cells are matched and within an appropriate voltage range. Inspect cell wrappers and terminal insulators. Clean the nickel and cell terminals. Align the strip over the correct terminals. Verify polarity and pack layout. Test weld settings on scrap material or a test setup. Make consistent welds without overheating the cells. Inspect every weld before continuing assembly. Do not solder directly to lithium-ion cell terminals unless using a process specifically designed and validated for that application. Why Pure Nickel? Pure nickel offers better corrosion resistance and more predictable electrical performance than nickel-plated steel. It is commonly preferred for lithium-ion battery-pack construction because it: Spot welds reliably when properly configured Resists corrosion Provides consistent conductivity Avoids the hidden steel core found in nickel-plated material Always verify material authenticity through supplier documentation or appropriate testing. Safety Information Lithium-ion battery construction can cause fire, serious injury, or property damage if completed incorrectly. Battery packs should only be assembled by someone familiar with: Cell matching Polarity Spot welding Insulation Current-path design BMS wiring Short-circuit prevention Electrical testing Pure nickel strip does not replace proper pack design, fusing, insulation, structural support, or current-capacity calculations.
