Oval Wire
The oval wire is a high-strength steel wire with an oval cross-section. Compared with round steel wire, it has unique advantages, such as increased structural stability and improved stress distribution. Therefore, it is widely used in fence wires for large livestock such as cattle and horses in agriculture and support frames in planting. Wanzhi Steel stocks a large number of commonly used specifications of galvanized oval wires and PVC coated oval wires. The sizes can be customized. Welcome to contact us.

What is oval wire?
It is a high-tensile steel wire with a silvery-white surface and galvanized. Therefore, it can also be called Galvanized Oval Wire. The cross-section is oval. Compared with round steel wire of the same diameter, oval steel wire is stronger, harder, and more fatigue-resistant. It is also easier to handle and operate than round steel wire. In addition to low carbon steel, it can also be made of high-carbon steel, making it an ideal choice for many projects, especially for many uses in Uruguay and Paraguay.

Advantages
1. Higher Tensile Strength
For the same cross-sectional area, the oval shape provides higher mechanical strength and deformation resistance than round wire.
2. Flexibility and Fatigue Resistance
The oval shape makes it easier to bend in specific directions, resulting in better toughness and resistance to repeated bending, making it less likely to break.
3. Space and Material Savings
The flat shape allows for a tighter structure when woven or layered, reducing material usage and achieving greater space efficiency.
4. Larger Contact Area
Compared to round wire, the surface area of the oval wire is larger, providing greater adhesion and wrapping.
5. Unique Filtration Performance
When used in screens, the gaps formed by the oval wire are more uniform and less likely to clog. The oval structure also better absorbs vibration and energy, contributing to noise reduction.

Oval wire of different materials
1. High Carbon Steel Wire: Offers exceptional strength and wear resistance.
2. Stainless Steel Wire: Offers excellent corrosion and rust resistance.
3. Spring Steel Wire: Features a high elastic limit and excellent relaxation resistance, allowing it to withstand frequent, repeated bending and deformation without breaking.
4. Alloy Steel Wire: By adding alloying elements to carbon steel, it achieves higher hardenability, strength, and wear resistance.
5. Galvanized Steel Wire: Galvanized steel wire provides excellent rust protection at a low cost.
6. Brass Wire: Offers excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and is easy to process.
7. Phosphor Bronze Wire: Offers higher strength, elasticity, and wear resistance than brass, and also offers excellent fatigue and corrosion resistance.

Application
1. Filtration and Screening
Used in vibrating screens in the oil and mining industries, dewatering and de-mediation screens in coal washing, and precision filtration in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
2. Reinforced Products
Used in the rubber industry as a skeletal material for radial tires and conveyor belts, and as a fiber additive in concrete, it provides excellent impact and fatigue resistance, as well as enhanced grip.
4. Industrial
Used in the spring manufacturing industry for the manufacture of mechanical springs to meet specific requirements. Other applications include brush wires, sealing components, and more.
5. Hardware and Mesh
Used in high-end weaving applications such as decorative netting and protective netting, as well as in tying wire and clamps. Its shape provides increased binding strength and resistance to loosening.

How is oval wire made?
The production process of elliptical steel wire usually includes the following steps:
1. Raw material selection: Select high-quality steel wire rods as raw material.
2. Drawing and forming: The steel is drawn into an elliptical cross-section by a drawing machine.
3. Heat treatment: The drawn elliptical steel wire is heat treated to improve its strength and toughness.
4. Surface treatment: The surface is galvanized and optionally coated to improve its corrosion resistance and aesthetics.To form high tensile galvanized steel wire.
5. Cutting: After rolling, it is cut into the required weight according to needs and packaged in the standard way, with plastic inside and braid outside.
