How is Annealed Wire Made?
In order to change the physical properties of the wire, it is subjected to annealing by heating and cooling. Annealing removes some of the hardness in the metal. It makes the wire more ductile. This increases the wire's ability to be shaped.
Annealed Wire Types
Black annealed wire takes its name from its distinctive black color after the annealing process. Made from low carbon steel or iron, black annealed wire is often used for binding in the construction and recycling industries. In the annealing process, the steel wire is heated in a furnace, softening it and changing its color from silver or gray to black.
Black annealed wire is very flexible and can be easily shaped. For this reason, it is ideal for manual or automatic binding processes.
Where is annealed wire used?
Annealed wire is preferred in many areas because it is durable and flexible.
Construction industry: It is used as iron binding wire in the construction industry.
Manufacturing industry: used in general purpose baling processes.
Recycling industry: It is used to bind scrap pieces such as cardboard, metal or paper for easier transportation in the plant.
In addition to its use in the industrial sector, annealed wire is also preferred in the consumer and commercial sectors.
