Back to Products | Manufacturing Wire

The main types of manufacturers wire available are HDLC (hard drawn low carbon),
galvanised wire and stainless steel.

HDLC (hard drawn low carbon) wire generally has a carbon content of between
0.04 and 0.08% carbon and is cold drawn to the required diameter with no further
treatment process. HDLC is used in a multitude of different applications, where it
can be plated, plastic dipped, machined, threaded and bent/formed to create many
everyday wire products.

Products made from HDLC include fridge racks, baskets, shop displays, general
engineering and manufacturing as well as automotive applications.

Annealed Tie Wire

Annealed tie wire, also called black iron wire, soft annealed wire and tie wire is a
fully softened low carbon steel wire. Annealed tie wire is mainly used in the
construction and manufacturing industries for tying purposes and is available in
coil form as well as straight and cut lengths.

A full range of coils sizes is available from small 1.42kg coils (belt coils) to 1000kg
coils, and straight cut lengths from 100mm upto 4000m. Diameters available include
1.25mm, 1.50mm, 1.57mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm, 2.64mm, 3.0mm, 3.15mm, 3.45mm
and 4.0mm.

Most low carbon wires can be annealed, therefore other sizes are available upon request.
