The extraordinary properties of these wires are due to the research and fine engineering skills employed in the strain aged processing . The hardened surface layer is the key element in the unique properties of Australian wire, and fracture of this shell will lead to breakage. The higher the grade of wire, the more fragile this layer becomes, therefore sharp bends in grades above Special are not recommended.
