WIRE-BOND®

Now... A NEW "LEVEL STANDARD" FOR MASONRY CONTRACTORS ... From WIRE-BOND!

Innovation is our job at WIRE-BOND®.

When the masonry industry required a new single-plane design to eliminate thick welds and allow heavier gauge on side wires, we developed a welded design with the least profile possible, yet with superior strength and durability.

The dual tangent points of the eyelets and tabs of our new level designs achieve a deep weld in the side wire of the reinforcement. It is not a flattened lap weld which weakens the system. It is a butt weld design which exceeds the pull strength requirements of ASTM951! (Test results available). The entire welded assembly does not exceed 3/16" in height and provides optimum CMU core clearance.

Our new Level Eye ladder and truss designs are now standard on all WIRE-BOND® masonry reinforcement sections.

WIRE-BOND® has always set the industry standard for Products, manufacturing, and service.

We're doing it again!
