When you think of wire products, chances are you picture mesh panels, fencing, or perhaps the odd retail display. But there’s an unsung hero behind many industries that doesn’t get nearly enough attention: formed wire.
At Ace Wire Works, formed wire is one of the most adaptable tools in our toolbox. Whether it’s a simple hook or a complex 3D wire structure, formed wire plays a crucial role in solving everyday challenges for businesses big and small.
What Is Formed Wire?
In simple terms, formed wire is wire that has been bent, shaped or twisted into a specific design to perform a job. From simple brackets to detailed 3D shapes, formed wire is the quiet achiever behind products you use every day.
The beauty of formed wire is in its versatility. It can be small enough to fit in the palm of your hand or large enough to support industrial equipment. And because every piece is custom-made, the possibilities are endless.
Where Is Formed Wire Used?
Formed wire touches almost every industry. It might be holding products on a retail shelf, securing equipment in a factory, or acting as a critical component in transport or construction. Some of the most common applications include:
- Retail Displays: Wire hooks, brackets and shelving for retail display stands and shop fittings.
- Furniture and Fixtures: Wire frames for chairs, tables and structural elements in both commercial and domestic furniture.
- Transport Components: Brackets, supports and anti-sail devices for trucks, trailers and logistics.
- Signage Supports: Wire frames and holders for signs, promotional displays or point-of-sale systems.
- Industrial Equipment: Guards, supports and components for machinery, tools and factory setups.
- Storage and Organisation: Wire pockets, baskets and racks used everywhere from warehouses to offices.
