From mending fences to binding together bales of hay, baling wire is an essential commodity to those in the recycling, construction, and farming industry. Over the years we have heavily relied on this strong and durable wire to fasten and hold together a wide variety of materials for our personal as well as commercial benefit.
As the leading bale wire suppliers in the Philadelphia area, we know a thing or two about baling wire and what kinds are right for your businesss needs. Today, we are going to discuss the different types of baling wire we have available, and their ideal uses.
Types of Wire
Single Loop Bale Ties Available in both black and galvanized, single loop bale ties are ideal for bundling plastic, metal, paper, clothing, as well as various recyclables. An extremely flexible option for those who need wire to fit certain requirements, bale ties can be cut into almost any length.
Black Annealed Baling Wire These wires evenly coated oil surface prevents them from rusting and ensures a smooth feed into your baler machine. If you are looking for a durable, high-quality baling wire, black annealed is for you.
Coiled Baling Wire Primarily used in automatic baling machines, coiled baling wire is best suited for large recycling plants, where the baling ties quickly move through the machine, quickly bundling together a hefty amount of material.

Annealed Wire: baling wire that has been made softer and more flexible through its chemistry and heat treatment. Black annealed baling wire will have a tensile strength of 69,000 to 75,000 PSI.

Baling Wire: also known as bale wire, is a type of wire used to band or secure together corrugated cardboard, paper, plastic, aluminum, foam, tires, textiles and other materials that are processed in the waste and recycling industry. Baling wire used in the agriculture industry for to bind bales of hay, or straw, is also known as hay wire.
Elongation: amount of permanent give or stretch a strand of baling wire can withstand before breaking
Gauge: a measure of the diameter of baling wire. As the baling wire gauge numbers get bigger, the baling wire thickness gets smaller. This inverse relationship between the gauge number and baling wire thickness can be confusing. For example; 12 gauge wire is going to be thicker than a 14 gauge wire. Thicker Baling Wire = Smaller Gauge Number. We offer 9 gauge baling wire, 10 gauge baling wire, 11 gauge baling wire, 12 gauge baling wire, 13 gauge baling wire and 14 gauge baling wire.
Hi-tensile Wire: baling wire although still ductile, is more rigid than annealed wire. It is used mainly in two-ram balers. Galvanized hi-tensile baling wire will have a tensile strength of 145,000 to 175,000 PSI.
Tensile Strength: greatest amount of longitudinal stress or force a wire can withstand before breaking. This number is expressed in PSI (pounds per square inch). Baling wire with low tensile strength will break under a lesser load than baling wire with high tensile strength.
Yield: the point of tension at which elongation begins.
