CoreMet Steel
Cold Drawn Wire Supplier UK & Global
CoreMet Steel is a trusted cold drawn wire supplier in the UK and globally, providing precision drawn steel wire for construction, engineering, and manufacturing applications.
Our cold drawn wires are engineered to exact tolerances, ensuring excellent dimensional accuracy, mechanical strength, and surface finish for a wide range of structural and industrial applications.
What Is Cold Drawn Wire?
Cold drawn wire is a steel wire produced by drawing hot rolled wire rod through a series of precision dies at ambient temperature. This cold drawing process reduces the diameter while increasing tensile strength, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish.
Compared to hot rolled wire, cold drawn wire offers tighter tolerances, improved mechanical properties, and a smoother surface, making it suitable for applications where consistency, strength, and finish are critical.
Cold drawn wire is commonly used in mesh production, fasteners, springs, reinforcement systems, automotive components, and general engineering applications.
