Cut-to-Length Wire
Combining wire and cold forming expertise to deliver improved quality and material costs savings.
As a fully integrated producer of copper alloy wire, Luvata adds wire and cold forming expertise to give customers precision-made products to exact specifications.
Luvata's precision cut-to-length wire offers significant material and manufacturing cost savings, while improving quality compared with traditional machining.
Advantages
- Burr-less (precision cut)
- Uniform hardness for immediate utilization in production
- Uniform grain weight (tighter than +/-.2 grains larger diameters over .350 Max +/- .3 grains)
- High-volume, faster processing than machining
- Material cost savings compared with traditional machining
- Improved yields
- Decreased scrap
Applications
- Automotive
- Defense and Aerospace
- Ordnance (slugs, cups, tubes and tips to fully formed) including small-caliber and recreational ammunition
Specifications
Our cut-to-length wire is available in copper and copper alloys (traditional alloys used in ammo 210, 220 and 102 alloy) and available in any temper. Diameters processed include .150"-.500".
