Carbon-steel tie wire for fencing projects
This roll supplies 400 ft of 16 AWG carbon-steel wire designed for tying fence mesh, tension wire and barbed wire during installation or repair. The material is stiff enough to hold knots securely yet pliable enough to twist by hand or with standard fence pliers. It suits agricultural, residential and light-commercial perimeter work where a single continuous length reduces splice points.
Installers needing a single bulk roll for standard
Contractors and property owners running chain-link, woven-wire or electric fence lines will find the length and gauge match common specification sheets. Users who require plastic-coated, aluminium or stainless steel wire for corrosion-prone environments should select a different product. The wire is not rated for overhead electrical conductors or structural guy-wire applications.
400 ft roll covers typical residential perimeter
One roll provides enough length for several hundred tie points on a standard chain-link or field-fence run, leaving headroom for repairs and gate openings. Very large acreage projects or multi-crew jobs will need additional rolls to avoid mid-run shortages. The carbon-steel finish offers no sacrificial corrosion protection, so coastal or high-moisture sites will see reduced service life compared with coated alternatives.

Questions about this item
What type of pliers or cutters are needed to work with the 16 gauge carbon steel tie wire?
Standard lineman's pliers, side-cutting pliers, or heavy-duty wire cutters rated for carbon steel will cleanly cut and twist the 16 gauge wire without damaging the tool jaws.
Can this 16 gauge tie wire be used to repair or extend existing fence sections that use a different wire thickness?
Yes, it can be spliced to other gauges using Western Union or figure-eight knots, though the joint strength will be limited by the thinner wire in the connection.
How can I verify the 400 foot roll length is accurate after opening the package?
Measure a ten-foot sample, count the coils in the roll, multiply by the coil circumference, or weigh the roll and compare against the expected weight for carbon steel at this gauge.
