1.6mm Diameter Mild Steel Wire Black Annealed x 25kg

1.6mm Black Annealed Mild Steel Wire - 25kg

Material: Mild Steel
Diameter: 1.6mm
Finish: Black Annealed
Weight: 25kg

Key Features:

• Material Composition:
  This wire is crafted from high-quality mild steel, renowned for its balance of strength, ductility, and weldability. Mild steel is commonly used in a variety of applications due to its excellent mechanical properties.

• Dimensions:

  • Diameter: 1.6mm
    The 1.6mm diameter is suitable for applications requiring a thicker, more robust wire. This makes it ideal for tasks needing greater strength and durability.

• Finish:

  • Black Annealed:
    The wire undergoes an annealing process, involving heating followed by slow cooling, which enhances its malleability and reduces brittleness. The black finish, a result of this process, provides a smooth surface that is easy to handle.

• Mechanical Properties:

  • Formability: Excellent
    The annealing process greatly enhances the wire's flexibility and ductility, allowing it to be bent, twisted, and shaped without breaking.
  • Weldability: Excellent
    Mild steel’s properties ensure this wire can be easily welded to other steel components, making it ideal for various construction and fabrication projects.

• Corrosion Resistance:

  • Poor:
    While mild steel has many advantages, it is not highly resistant to corrosion. The black annealed finish offers minimal protection against rust. For applications exposed to moisture or harsh environments, additional protective measures such as painting or coating may be necessary.

Applications:

• Construction:
  Ideal for binding reinforcement bars (rebar) in concrete construction, securing scaffolding, or tying elements together in building projects.
• Agriculture:
  Suitable for fencing, plant support, and other agricultural tasks where strong, flexible wire is needed.
• Crafts and DIY Projects:
  Perfect for crafting, jewelry making, and DIY projects that require malleable and easy-to-manipulate wire.
• Packaging and Baling:
  Suitable for bundling and securing items, providing a reliable solution for packaging and baling operations.

Usage Instructions:

1. Handling:
   Use gloves when handling black annealed wire to avoid injury and ensure a firm grip.
2. Cutting:
   Cut the wire to the desired length using appropriate wire cutters or shears.
3. Forming and Binding:
   Bend, twist, or shape the wire as needed for your specific application. The annealed finish allows for easy manipulation without breaking.
4. Welding (if needed):
   If welding is required, ensure surfaces are clean and free from contaminants. Use appropriate welding techniques for mild steel.

Packaging:

• This product is sold in a 25kg coil, providing a substantial amount of wire for extensive use. The coil is designed for easy unwinding and handling, ensuring smooth operation during application.
