COLD-FORMING MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT & MANUFACTURING
Cold-Heading Wire and Shaped-Wire Material Solutions
Building on wire and related metal-material processing, we continue to expand material development, processing and supply services in line with our equipment, production lines and process capabilities. Shaped tubes are partner projects; we assist with enquiries. Project details and supply terms require confirmation.
Our product scope covers cold-heading wire and shaped wire, with cold-drawn seamless shaped tubes coordinated through partners, for automotive, construction, machinery and other cold-forming applications.
