What is catenary wire?

Written by Miami Stainless | 04-Apr-2017 00:00:00

The word 'catenary' is the curve that is formed when wire or chain is supported at its ends.  So catenary wire, simiply explained is any wire that is fixed in this format, such as wires used in decorative lighting, electrical cable suspension, train lines and fibre optics.

Miami Stainless stainless steel wire is perfect for many of these applications.  Our wire is available by the metre, 50, 100, 305 and 1000 rolls.  We have a number of methods of fixing the systems including eye plates, turnbuckles, eye nuts, wire rope grips, thimbles and swages.

 

 

We also stock PVC coated wire and will soon be getting our first shipment of Galvanised wire.
