Annealed Wire From Loos & Co, Inc.

Aug 17, 2022 07:30 AM

Wire DrawingLoos & Co., Inc. makes many different wire, cable, and wire rope products. To quote our founder, Gus Loos, "We do everything but melt the steel." And it's the truth: we bring stainless steel rod in the back door and ship cable assemblies out the front, supplying the market with products at every intermediate step.

Along these lines, The Loos HotWire will occasionally get calls from customers who say, "I had no idea you made that!" or "I've been buying this for years and never knew I could get it from LoosCo!" That's when we pass the calls along to our Marketing Department to get the word out there!

Here's just such a case: a post on Annealed Wire from the guys in the shameless Product Marketing department, hoping to spread the word about one of our many wire products:

Stainless Wire DrawingWe've been drawing wire here in Pomfret, CT for over 35 years. We started with the goal of supporting our aircraft cable and wire rope manufacturing operations, but soon added capacity to support the wire market in general. The high quality required in the small diameter wires used in our high performance aircraft cables made Loos & Co., Inc wire products desirable for many other applications.

Stainless Steel annealing furnaceOne such product is Annealed wire, or wire that has been heat treated. Annealing is a process of placing wire in a furnace to soften the material, relieve internal stresses, induce flexibility and improve cold working properties. Annealed wire products are primarily used as tie wire, as material for weaving wire mesh and as binding wire in construction. 

Loos manufactures annealed wire in 302, 303, 304, 305, 316, 321, 347, & 400 Series, 17-7 pH, Monel® and Inconel® Alloys. Other materials are available upon request. 

Stainelss Lock WireWe stock and ship in Coils, on Carriers, on Spools, and on Reels: we can package annealed wire any way you want it!
