Black Annealed Tying Wire for Construction Use

Tying wire is an essential product across the construction industry, particularly for bricklayers, groundworkers, and general builders. Black annealed tying wire is preferred due to its flexibility, which makes it quick and efficient to work with when securing rebar, tying mesh, or fastening materials in place.

Supplied in an 8kg coil, this tying wire provides consistent performance across the full length of the coil, helping to maintain correct positioning of reinforcement steel throughout the build process.

 Why Choose Black Annealed Tying Wire?

Black annealed tying wire offers an ideal balance between strength and flexibility, making it easy to work with while maintaining a secure hold. Unlike harder wire types, it can be twisted by hand or with standard tying tools, helping to reduce effort and improve efficiency on site.

This makes it a practical and cost-effective solution for ongoing construction work where reliability and ease of use are essential.

Important Information

Please note that black annealed wire can often show signs of surface rusting. This is a normal characteristic of annealed mild steel wire and does not affect the performance or suitability of the wire for construction and reinforcement applications.
