Get to know the different types of wire and their uses in various industries.

Wire is a metal material that is widely used in many industries, including construction, automotive, electrical, and jewelry. There are many types of wire, each with different properties and uses.

Types of wire and properties of each type

  1. Steel Wire
    Steel wire is a wire made from steel or carbon steel. It is highly strong, durable, and has many grades depending on the amount of carbon mixed in it.
  2. Copper Wire
    Copper wire has excellent electrical conductivity, is highly tough and flexible.
  3. Aluminum Wire
    Aluminum wire is lightweight, resistant to corrosion, and conducts electricity to a certain extent. Although not as good as copper, it is cheaper.
  4. Lead Wire
    Lead wire is a wire with high flexibility, high density, and corrosion resistance.
  5. Nickel Wire
    Nickel wire has high heat and corrosion resistance.

 

Factors affecting prices

  1. Raw material costs
    Prices of metals used to produce wire, such as iron ore, copper and aluminum.
  2. Energy costs
    Wire production is energy-intensive, especially for rolling and plating.
  3. Supply and demand
    Demand for wire from major industries, such as construction and automotive.
  4. Exchange rates
    Some materials must be imported and may be affected by currency values.
  5. Government policies
    Import-export tax measures related to metal raw materials.
