Alloy 430 can be cold rolled to achieve the temper properties
required by specific customers and/or manufacturing requirements.
Contact Ulbrich Wire for details.
Corrosion Resistance
Refer to NACE (National Association of Corrosion Engineers) for
recommendations.
Standard Wire Finishes
Extra Clean: Extra clean is also referred to as “bright annealed” or “bright
annealed and cold rolled”
Grease (round wire only): Drawn in a heavy grease produces an “Ultra
bright” finish for decorative applications
Soap (round wire only): Soap is used as a lubricant in the drawing
process and is not removed. It acts as a lubricant during customer
part forming operation. A soap finish is available in tempered
products.
Plated: Many plating options are available.
∗Special finishes are available: Contact Ulbrich Wire Sales with
special finish and plating requests.
