Cold Headed Wire

Cold headed wire is metal shaped into fasteners or components through cold forging, ensuring precision, strength, and efficiency in manufacturing bolts, screws, and rivets.

Cold Headed Wire

Cold headed wire is wire used in the cold heading process, where metal wire is shaped into specific forms without heat. The wire is pressed into a die to create parts like bolts, screws, and fasteners.

The main advantage of cold headed wire is its ability to produce strong, precise parts. Since it’s not heated, it keeps its natural strength, making the parts durable and reliable. The process is also fast and cost-effective, ideal for large-scale production.

Cold headed wire can be made from materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminium, depending on the needs. It’s widely used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, and consumer goods.
