Page created towards getting wire for my bonder

I have the following wires ordered:

• 2x CFW California Fine Wire 1% Si Al Silicon Aluminum Bonding Wire 50ft 0.001 NOS
  • Wire itself is compatible to machine, but is on a small spool
• 1x KULICKE & SOFFA BONDING WIRE ALW-295M. 4 ROLLS-1080FT.
  • Price is quite low (per foot) and is on the right spool type
  • Diameter is unknown
• 1x Topline 1.0 mil Au, 300'
  • Bought new
  • Correct spool size
  • Cost $ total, although actually comparable to the CFW per foot

“bonding wire” gave a lot of usable results on eBay

Note: a lot of surplus wire seems to be ribbon rather than round wire. I'm avoiding these. Where are these used?
