Still have questions? Contact us →Secondary steel wire, also known as second choice or non-prime steel wire, is steel wire that may have minor cosmetic or dimensional variations from prime grade wire but maintains excellent mechanical properties and performance. It offers a cost-effective alternative for many industrial applications at a significantly lower price point than prime wire.
We supply bright & black carbon steel wire, galvanized steel wire, pre-stressed steel wire, brass plated hose wire, brass plated steel tire cord, and many other specialized steel wire products for industrial and construction applications worldwide.
Yes, Continental Trading Corp. has been exporting secondary steel wire worldwide for over 40 years. We work with customers in numerous countries and can provide competitive pricing and reliable delivery from North America.
Primary (prime) wire meets all production quality specifications. Secondary (non-prime or second choice) wire may have minor surface cosmetic variations or be slightly outside dimensional tolerances, but retains its core mechanical properties. Secondary wire is available at a significant price discount and is suitable for most industrial applications.
