Will this melt in a cone 10 firing for ceramics?

A quick search shows nichrome has a melting point upwards of 2500 degrees F. Another quick search shows cone 10 temps to be well below that at less than 1700 degrees F. Do a test safely and find out. AND DON'T BLAME ME.

This nichrome wire was perfect for the project I was working on.

I assume this wire would work for any hot-wire cutter. I haven't tried it on my 52" bow, but I'm sure it will make just as good cuts on that bow as it did my 28" home-made bow. Looking forward to making some cool stuff with this wire on the bow!
