Yes I think that wire will work. For the gauge (GA), choose a wire so that its overall resistance is around 0.1 ohm or lower for a length of 10 cm. I saw on one ebay listing the following data for titanium wire: "26 Gauge AWG: 0.40mm - Resistance: 0.14 Ohms/meter at room temperature". We can calculate the expected resistance for 10 cm of wire using this formula: (0.14 ohms/100cm)*10cm = 0.014 ohm, so this will do the job. A wide variety of wire gauges will work. Just beware that anything thickher than around 14 gauge (lower gauge number means thicker) the wire starts to get difficult to bend. Does this answer the question?
