Reliable Forming for High-Stakes Applications

Cold heading wire undergoes precise processing to maintain its mechanical integrity under stress. Ideal for room-temperature deformation, it helps manufacturers achieve consistent, crack-free parts while reducing tooling wear and waste. When strength and surface finish matter, cold heading wire delivers on both fronts.

Common Applications:

  • Construction Applications
  • Electronics Components & Fasteners
  • Manufacturing Industry
  • Aerospace Components & Fasteners
  • Home Appliances
  • Automotive Industry
  • Medical Devices
  • Furniture

Capabilities and Available Grades

To ensure optimal performance, the wire undergoes a rigorous quality control process, delivering a smooth surface and consistent diameter essential for producing reliable fasteners, screws, bolts, and similar parts. Known for its excellent machinability and precision, cold heading quality low carbon steel wire is a trusted choice across industries like automotive, aerospace, and construction.

TSW offers several finished surface quality levels for our wire products including Plating Quality (Extra-Clean Smooth Bright or eXceptional Plating™), Bright Basic, and Industrial Quality (Standard Quality).
