A wire is a single, usually cylindrical, flexible strand or rod of metal. Wires are used to bear mechanical loads or electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is commonly formed by drawing the metal through a hole in a die or draw plate. Wire gauges come in various standard sizes, as expressed in terms of a gauge number. The term wire is also used more loosely to refer to a bundle of such strands, as in 'multistranded wire', which is more correctly termed a wire rope in mechanics, or a cable in electricity.
Wire comes in solid core, stranded, or braided forms. Although usually circular in cross-section, wire can be made in square, hexagonal, flattened rectangular, or other cross-sections, either for decorative purposes, or for technical purposes such as high-efficiency voice coils in loudspeakers. Edge-woundcoil springs, such as the Slinky toy, are made of special flattened wire.
In antiquity, jewelry often contains, in the form of chains and applied decoration, large amounts of wire that is accurately made and which must have been produced by some efficient, if not technically advanced, means. In some cases, strips cut from metal sheet were made into wire by pulling them through perforations in stone beads. This causes the strips to fold round on themselves to form thin tubes. This strip drawing technique was in use in Egypt by the 2nd Dynasty. From the middle of the 2nd millennium BC most of the gold wires in jewellery are characterised by seam lines that follow a spiral path along the wire. Such twisted strips can be converted into solid round wires by rolling them between flat surfaces or the strip wire drawing method. The strip twist wire manufacturing method was superseded by drawing in the ancient Old World sometime between about the 8th and 10th centuries AD. There is some evidence for the use of drawing further East prior to this period.

This plant can used to coat building wire ,electrical wire,etc.
Video we created for OneSteel to demonstrate techniques for steel wire coating and drawing.
During an electro-plating process a metallic coating is formed on the surface of objects like wires. Wires pass through a chemical solution that contains the corresponding ions of the metal of the coating. By applying a potential difference between the negatively charged cathode wires and the positively charged metal anode, the metal from the anode dissolves and simultaneously on the wires the metal deposits and forms the coating. A metal coating can offer improved corrosion resistance, a better electrical conductivity, a good adherence to other materials, nicer aesthetics and so on. Electro-deposition is mostly used to apply coatings of copper, nickel, tin and zinc.

Paper coatings can be used to enhance the printability, visual properties or functionality of a sheet of paper board. Coating formulas vary widely because there are many different grades of coated paper and board with very different end uses. This module will identify the main purposes of paper and board coatings and describe the three most common coater designs.

Functional Fire Test. The cable has been coated with DC 309 Coating and the intumescent char developed maintains the circuit integrity of the cable for more than 1 hr.(Refer to the timer and the bulb light which is continuously on during the test period.) DC309 Cable Coating is an intumescent coating for internal application to limit flame spread effectively, when fire occurs, the coating will rapidly intumesce to form a foam carbon char layer to prevent the fire propagation. This coating is applied on grouped electrical, data or communication cables on cable trays or racked cables in commercial and industrial buildings. MVL is the exclusive distributor of DC309 Cable Coating in the Middle East and North Arica. (UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Algeria, Egypt, Libya, T...
