Steel Wire
Steel wire aka Wire Rod is drawn through dies to precise diameters and heat-treated to achieve desired tensile strength. Available in low-carbon for general use, high-carbon for springs, stainless for corrosion resistance and specialty alloys for electrical grounding, wire is remarkably versatile. It can be formed, welded, braided or galvanized, making it a cornerstone of countless applications across construction, manufacturing and agriculture.
Applications
- Reinforcement & prestressing: Tendons and strands in prestressed concrete beams, slabs and sleepers
- Fencing & mesh: Barbed wire, chain-link fencing, welded mesh gabions for erosion control
- Spring manufacture: Compression, extension and torsion springs for automotive and industrial uses
- Binding & tie rods: Wire ties for masonry, packaging straps and bracing in HVAC ductwork
