MATC Steel Binding Wire, supplied by Mustafa Ashqar Trading L.L.C., Dubai, U.A.E. 🇦🇪, is a flexible, durable and economical mild steel wire designed for tying reinforcement steel bars (rebars), securing steel mesh and general construction applications.
Manufactured from low-carbon steel and commonly processed through annealing, binding wire provides the flexibility, softness and tensile strength required for efficient manual or mechanical tying operations.
Widely used in reinforced concrete construction, civil engineering, infrastructure development, precast concrete manufacturing and industrial fabrication, steel binding wire is an essential material for maintaining reinforcement positioning before and during concrete placement.
Common binding wire diameters range from approximately 0.7 mm to 2.0 mm, depending on application and supplier availability.
| Wire Gauge (BWG) | Approx. Diameter | Common Application |
|---|---|---|
| 22 BWG | 0.71 mm | Light tying applications |
| 21 BWG | 0.81 mm | General light-duty binding |
| 20 BWG | 0.89 mm | Reinforcement tying |
| 19 BWG | 1.07 mm | General construction binding |
| 18 BWG | 1.25 mm | Heavy-duty rebar tying |
| 17 BWG | 1.47 mm | Industrial binding |
| 16 BWG | 1.65 mm | Heavy-duty construction |
| 14 BWG | 2.11 mm | Heavy-duty securing applications |
Wire gauge systems differ. Diameters shown are approximate BWG values; actual wire diameter and tolerance should be confirmed before ordering.
Common Supply Forms: Coils, rolls, bundles and pre-cut tie-wire lengths.
Typical Packaging: 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg, 20 kg, 25 kg and 50 kg options, depending on supplier specifications.
1. Black Annealed Binding Wire
Soft, flexible low-carbon steel wire commonly used for tying reinforcement bars and steel mesh. Annealing improves ductility and helps reduce breakage during twisting.
2. Galvanized Binding Wire
Zinc-coated steel wire providing improved resistance to atmospheric corrosion. Suitable for selected outdoor, packaging and general-purpose binding applications.
3. Pre-Cut / Loop Tie Wire
Supplied in prepared lengths or loop-ended configurations to simplify repetitive tying operations and improve productivity on construction sites.
🦾 Low-carbon steel construction provides an economical and workable tying material.
🔄 High flexibility and ductility allow easy twisting around reinforcement bars.
🔩 Designed to secure rebars at intersections during reinforcement assembly.
✋ Suitable for manual tying with pliers and compatible tying tools.
🏗️ Helps maintain reinforcement arrangement before concrete placement.
📏 Available in multiple wire gauges and coil weights.
🔧 Easy to cut, bend, twist and handle.
🛡️ Galvanized options offer improved corrosion resistance for suitable applications.
💰 Economical for high-volume construction and reinforcement work.
🏭 Suitable for building, infrastructure and industrial projects.
