Low-carbon Steel Wire, General Purpose Wire, for Frameworks

Low-Carbon Steel Wire for Producing Nail, Mesh, Concrete Construction


LSW-01: Low carbon steel wire

Low-carbon steel wire is normal quality wire, and it is called general purpose wire. Steel wire is usually well holds its shape, but this is a heavy metal, and bend it easily. Often used for a variety of frameworks.

Yaoan Wiremesh supply professional and honest service.

Specifications
The diameter:
Low-carbon steel wire is manufactured with diameters from 0.20 to 8.0 mm by repeated cold drawing. The raw material for hot-rolled wire rod is with diameters 5.0-9.0 mm.
Coating: galvanized, copper.

  • According to the type of processing steel wire is:
    • Heat-treated (annealed).
    • Thermally untreated.
  • According to the type of surface:
    • No cover.
    • Coated (galvanized, copper coated).
    • Low-carbon steel wire heat-treated coatings without light, and in consultation with the manufacturer of the consumer is also allowed production of a black wire.

Features:

  1. Bend it easily.
  2. Mild steel galvanized wire has high resistance to corrosion.

Packing: The wire supplied in coils of 0.02-0.2 tons and in the pallet of 0.8-1.2 tons. Each coil tied.

Application of Low-carbon wire:

  1. In general, low-carbon steel wire is the widest range of application - from the production of nails, mesh and reinforced concrete structures, to use the wire as the final product.
  2. Manufacture of nails - not bright annealed wire with a diameter of 1 to 6 mm.
  3. As tie wire (binding wire) - heat-treated wire without coating or galvanized.
  4. Low-carbon steel wire is also used in concrete construction for binding reinforcement.
  5. Manufacture of welded wire mesh - bright wire or galvanized wire almost all diameters (0.5 mm - 6.0 mm).
  6. Production of woven wire mesh - annealed uncoated or galvanized wire from 0.3 to 2 mm.
  7. Production of other types of metal mesh - hexagonal twisted, jointed, grooved, etc.
  8. The production of barbed wire - wire uncoated or galvanized with a diameter of 1.4 to 2.8 mm.
  9. Agriculture - for growing hops, grapes - annealed and not annealed wire diameter 1.0 mm to 3.0 mm.
  10. Air lines of communication - galvanized low carbon wire diameter from 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm.

We are always in the presence of a high quality low carbon steel wire. Price varies depending on the characteristics and the diameter of each individual wire. But for large volume orders we offer special rates. Low-carbon steel wire is sold by weight. Your desired order quantity is easily calculated, based on the diameter of a circle of wire and its total length.

Different Types Of Carbon Steel Wires And Their Uses - Huaxiao Metal

Carbon steel wires come in various types, each designed for specific applications based on their properties and characteristics. Carbon steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, with carbon being the main alloying element. The percentage of carbon in the steel determines its properties, such as strength, hardness, and ductility. 

As a professional purchaser, engineer, or designer, choosing the right carbon steel wire is crucial to the success of your project. It directly affects the strength, durability, and cost of the final product. This guide will provide you with one-stop, in-depth expertise, covering the core differences from low-carbon to high-carbon steel wire, key technical parameters, how to choose the best solution based on the application, and how to identify high-quality suppliers.

Carbon steel wire is a metal wire with iron and carbon as the main components. The core factor that determines its performance is the carbon content. It is the slight change in carbon content that gives the steel wire completely different mechanical properties – from excellent flexibility to excellent hardness and strength. Based on the carbon content, carbon steel wire is usually divided into three categories: low carbon steel wire, medium carbon steel wire, and high carbon steel wire. Understanding the differences between the three is the first step to making the right purchasing decision.

Consider these five key questions, which will guide you to the most appropriate option:

  • What are the strength requirements? How much tension or compression will your product need to withstand? This is the primary factor in deciding between low, medium, and high carbon wire.

  • Is there any subsequent processing required? Do you need to bend, braid, or weld the wire? If so, low or medium-carbon wires with good ductility and weldability are better choices.

  • What is the working environment like? Will the wire be exposed to moisture or corrosive environments? If so, you may want to consider wires with additional coatings (such as galvanizing).

  • How high is the wear resistance requirement? If the wire is subjected to repeated friction or abrasion (such as springs, cables), high-carbon wire is necessary.

  • What is your budget and industry standards? Cost is always a consideration. Also, make sure the wire you choose meets the specific standards required by your industry (such as ASTM, ISO, DIN, JIS).
