It is nearly always Nichrome wire. The same is used for space heaters, etc.

What element is used to make heating elements in toasters?
The most common alloy is the Swedish Kanthal (Fe, Cr,Al).
Do toasters have a motor?
No. Toasters generally have heating elements, a mechanical or electronic timer, and a spring loaded tray on which toastable items rest. There are some larger industrial model toasters that do have electric motors that pass toastable items past the heating element, typically on a chain belt, but the toaster in your kitchen is not likely one of these.
Why are heating elements of toasters made of alloy instead of iron?
1). You want the resistance of the heating element to be somewhat more than the resistance of a pure iron one. 2). When the heating element heats up to glowing, you don't want it to melt and fall to the bottom of the toaster in a blob. So you need a substance with a melting temperature higher than that of pure iron.
Do toasters use radiation?
Yes, toasters use infrared radiation to heat and toast bread. This type of radiation is emitted by electric heating elements within the toaster. It heats up the bread and causes it to brown and crisp.
What do toasters and light bulbs have in common?
Toasters and light bulbs are both electrical appliances that convert electrical energy into heat or light. They both use a filament or coil that heats up when electricity passes through it, though the purpose and outcome of the heat produced is different for each appliance.
How do you use NiChrome wire?
NiChrome wire is commonly used as a heating element in applications such as electric ovens, toasters, and hair dryers. To use NiChrome wire, you can wrap it around a ceramic or heat-resistant material to create a heating coil. When electricity passes through the wire, it heats up quickly and generates heat.
What element is used in heating element in toasters?
Nichrome but nichrome is made out of nickel and chromium
What wire is used for an immersion heater?
An immersion electric heater usually uses nichrome wire as the heating element. Nichrome is highly resistive, and by applying a voltage, we can get it pretty hot. Nichrome is used as the heating element in toasters and on electric range elements as well as lots of other places.
What heats the incubator two words?
Heating element.
Does toaster have metal?
Toasters are made of metal to withstand the heat from the red hot elements that toast the bread.
Do toaster have metal?
Toasters are made of metal to withstand the heat from the red hot elements that toast the bread.
What periodic table element is used in toasters?
From what I can tell, there are actually 3 of them... Nickel (Ni), Chromium (Cr), and Iron (Fe). The three are combined in certain percentages to make an allow called "Nichrome", as it has high electrical resistivity, a high melting point, and won't oxidize (or rust) at high temperatures.
