Coastal Wire is about Quality
The difference in quality between baling wire manufacturers lies mainly in the process by which they anneal (or heat treat) the baling wire. We FULLY ANNEAL all of our products using controlled-atmosphere, bell annealing furnaces which results in the most consistent wire available to the baling industry. Other manufacturers may employ an inferior process of strand annealing which is less consistent due to the open air heating and rapid cooling of the wire.
At Coastal Wire Company, we are able to achieve superior ductility and elongation (minimum of 25% in a 10 inch sample) in our baling wire while maintaining a physical strength of 65,000 to 75,000 psi. In the baling of materials with excessive memory, extra ductility is essential in order to avoid wire knot breakage. By employing the use of bell annealing furnaces, and by following specific heating and cooling procedures developed only at Coastal Wire, our products are free of such quality issues.
