Can i replace this part with some normal wire?

Hello, i have strange issue,

just to make it simple i will show you guys on a picture which part i didnt get in the box.

Its about the wire that holds the fan on the cooler, i did only get one that fits on the outside fan. Because this cooler have two fans, one in the middle and one outside that pushes warm outside.

Right now i just have fan on the one wire so it kinds of falls down if you know what I mean, but the question is:
Can I just buy normal wire and form it like the other one? Or is this wire kind of special with thermal fuctions?

Or could I just leave it with one wire from the box on the top of the fan?
Thanks for help

Yes, you can make your own with a coat hanger or sturdy wire. It may take a little bit of time/finesse to get it to fit right, but doable for sure.

use a small ziptie

Maybe a strange question but will the ziptie not melt from the warm from the cooler?

you think I could leave it just with one ? Or it is not recommended for longer time? because everything works normally, but ofcourse it would be better if the fan was sitting tight. I think i will buy som wire and try to make this part by myself, the only think i was wondering if this out the box is covered with some special thermal functionality

I wouldnt leave it with just 1. You would run the risk of the fan moving bouncing off the headsink and potentially damaging or breaking the fan as a result. You could likely  contact BeQuiet to get some sent to you since you did not receive the proper amount in the retail packaging.

Only parts in your PC to reach melting temps are CPU and GPU cores. Cooler heatsink is hardly warm to touch.
