Annealed Wire: Ensuring Strength in Security and Agricultural Fencing

Annealed Tie Fence Wire is a highly durable and flexible wire, specifically designed for use in various fencing applications. It is available in both galvanized and PVC-coated options, offering enhanced corrosion resistance and extended lifespan, even in harsh outdoor conditions. The wire is typically supplied in common gauges ranging from 9 to 14 AWG (3.7mm to 2.1mm), with thicker gauges preferred for added strength and stability in demanding environments. This versatile tie wire is ideal for securing fence materials to posts, maintaining tension, and reinforcing fence structures. Its excellent flexibility allows for easy handling and installation, making it a reliable and cost-effective solution for agricultural, residential, and industrial fencing needs.

Wire Gauges and Diameters

tie fence wire is commonly supplied in a range of gauges, depending on the specific requirements of the fencing application:

• 9 AWG (3.7 mm): This thicker gauge wire is ideal for securing large and heavy fences, providing maximum strength and stability.
• 10 AWG (3.4 mm): this gauge is also suitable for robust fencing but offers more flexibility for tying and fastening.
• 11 AWG (3.0 mm): it suitable for general-purpose fencing.
• 12 AWG (2.7 mm): this gauge offers sufficient strength for most residential and light agricultural fences.
• 14 AWG (2.1 mm): This thinner gauge is ideal for garden fencing or animal enclosures, where heavy-duty strength is not required.

Tensile Strength

• For fencing applications, annealed wire with a tensile strength of at least 500 MPa is recommended. This level of strength ensures the wire can withstand the tension required for securing and supporting various types of fences without breaking.

Coating Options

• Galvanized Coating: Galvanized annealed wire is coated with zinc, providing excellent protection against corrosion. This coating is particularly beneficial for outdoor and agricultural fencing, where the wire is exposed to moisture and harsh environmental conditions.
• PVC Coating: PVC coated annealed wire offers an additional layer of protection and is commonly used in decorative fencing, garden fencing, and animal enclosures. The PVC coating enhances durability and provides a smooth, visually appealing finish.
• Black Oxide Coating: Black annealed wire is coated with a black oxide finish, offering basic corrosion resistance. It is suitable for general-purpose fencing applications where moderate protection is sufficient.

Material Types

• Black Annealed Wire: Made from low carbon steel, this wire is highly flexible and easy to work with, making it a popular choice for general-purpose fencing. It is suitable for tying, knotting, and other fastening applications.
• Galvanized Annealed Wire: Ideal for outdoor use, this wire is resistant to corrosion and durable, making it perfect for agricultural and security fencing.
• PVC Coated Annealed Wire: This wire is used in situations where both durability and aesthetics are important. The PVC coating adds a layer of protection and comes in various colors, often used in garden and decorative fencing.
• High-Tensile Annealed Wire: Made from high-strength steel, this wire is designed for heavy-duty applications, such as livestock and deer fencing. It offers superior strength and is capable of withstanding significant tension.
• Stainless Steel Annealed Wire: Known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, this wire is ideal for use in coastal or high-humidity areas. It is commonly used in industrial and security fencing where long-term durability is required.

Common Applications

• Tying Wire: Used to secure fencing materials to posts or other supports, ensuring a stable and secure fence structure.
• Tensioning Wire: Essential for maintaining the tension in the fence, preventing sagging and ensuring the fence remains upright and secure.
• Knotting or Fastening Wire: Employed to join or fasten different sections of the fence together, providing additional strength and stability.
• Supporting Structures: Used to add cross-braces or diagonal wire supports, reinforcing the fence and enhancing its ability to withstand high winds, heavy loads, or other environmental stresses.
