About Bright Basic Wire


Wire steel in a coil
  • Bright basic wire, also referred to as BBW, is drawn from hot rolled rod. The rod is cold drawn through a die in order to produce a product with close dimensional tolerances, improved mechanical properties and a bright finish. 

  • Shotblasting or pickling is often completed prior to drawing in order to remove surface scale. 

  • Bright basic wire may be produced in industrial, cold finished, high carbon and cold heading qualities.
