Baling wire made of soft iron or steel has significant tensile strength but is still easy to bend and tie. It&#;s typically available in sizes ranging from 11ga to 14ga, galvanized or coated, to suit the wide variety of applications for which it&#;s used, including mending fences, fixing equipment, and making clotheslines and hangers. Its major purpose has been baling, creating bales of hay, and gathering other products and materials.
Soft metal baling wire gained popularity for its use in baling hay, particularly at high speeds as part of an automated process where the wire is quickly wrapped and joined. Beginning in the s, specialized baling twine became available that served the purpose better; however baling wire had already found many other niches and, even today, it remains a popular item. It&#;s used in performing impromptu repairs around the farm, ranch, or another rural setting where it&#;s readily available.
While the use of baling wire to bale hay may be declining, its use in baling recyclables has expanded rapidly. Recycling machinery uses compression followed by wrapping with baling wire to create dense, compact bundles of items, including used clothing, plastics, cardboard, and papers. Baling wire is also useful in environments where tape and shrink wrap aren&#;t effective packaging materials due to high heat and other environmental factors. Stainless steel wire is used when additional strength and heat resistance are required.
Probably also born on the farm or ranch, baling wire is a popular craft material, used both to assemble projects and as an art material in its own right. Fishermen and other outdoorsmen find it handy to organize items by stringing them together and to make repairs in the woods.

I've been looking around for a long time for a baler with the Wisconson motor, or NH 65 since my tractor is a little small to power a 14x16" baler. Most of the self powered balers I'm finding are wire, not twine, and are going for pretty cheap in "good working condition". NH 65's are almost impossible to find, so this leaves me with the self powered option. I know wire is a pain if left in the field, and gets caught in mowers, rakes, balers and whatever else. Wire also rusts.. but other than that, what's the big drawback? Any pros vs twine?
Any input would help. Thanks!
