Manufactured to be both strong and rigid the wire works best with hydraulic stainless steel fittings. The negligible stretch of the wires makes it ideal for long runs, with no sharp bends (nothing greater than 45 degrees).

Our international supplier is dedicated to quality wire manufacturing and their experience enables them to design and manufacture wire rope with optimal blance between high tensile strength, fatigue resistance, abrasion resistance, and structural stability. They provide a special treatment for bright and smooth surface of wire and cable to deliver a truly top-shelf, long lasting product to last for ages.

As indicated by the pictures, 1x19 indicates the structure of the wire. The product is constructed of 1 strand formed by 19 individual wires twisted together in a silky smooth finish. When used for balustrading, it provides negligible stretch and minimal flexibility - hence, why we recommend hydraulically swaged fittings for this premium wire.

Other types of wire include

• 7x7 composed of 49 individual strands (a flexibile wire), and
• 7x19 composed of 133 individual strands (a VERY flexible wire).

Simply put, the more wires used to twist a strand, the more flexible the wire becomes as a whole.
