Wire
There are three main types of wire distinguished by their flexibility. 1x19 wire is the most rigid and is used primarily on hydraulically pressed assemblies. 7x7 is semi-flexible and can be used on either hydraulically or hand swaged assemblies and 7x19 is the most flexible and so is the easiest to use on hand swaged assemblies.
All sizes are available as 305 metre rolls or cut to length.
