OOK 50141 12 Gauge, 100ft Steel Galvanized Wire

Great quality wire at a great price. I highly recommend it.

Excellent quality and very strong!

In repairing a fence line along I-40, I found one section completely ripped apart from falling trees. This wire allowed me to fasten the two sections together after pulling them together using pipes and ratchet straps. Easy to cut with large side cutter and very strong after twisting the wire/fence together.

This is a good deal for 100 feet of wire, but be sure you consider what you're trying to hang or repair with it. I bought this wire for hanging large canvas pictures (3'x6" +) and while it works, I think it may be a little too much for everyday household craft and indoor hanging projects unless you're talking museum size and weight pictures/objects. It's made of steel and rather thick at 12 gauge, so unlike aluminum wire of the same gauge, it was quite difficult to cut with my household wire cutters and remained quite stiff when looping and winding it around itself on the backs of the stretched canvases. It did the job, but I could have easily used a smaller gauge or lighter material for my projects and probably received better hanging results. (Copper or aluminum would have twisted and bent more easily) Remember all the factors when choosing wire; gauge, weight of object being suspended, material of wire, pliability etc. when making your choice. (The higher the wire gauge number the thinner the wire; therefore, the less weight it will hold and aluminum and copper are softer than steel, so will hold less but /bend/stretch more easily.) I know that OOK 16 gauge galvanized steel wire is rated to hold up to 55 pounds and 19 gauge will hold up to 35 pounds, so this 12 gauge will probably hold about 75 pounds. Also remember to take into consideration the hardware that this wire will be attaching to. If you're sticking a 75 pound object to a wall on a basic nail, the wire may hold, but the nail may break. In addition, drywall will hold much less firmly than hardwood, so use a stud finder if possible to locate the solid wood behind the wall to drill/nail into. I would recommend this wire for hanging very heavy objects like large mirrors, mailboxes, potted plants etc. My canvas weighs approx. 20 lbs. each and one length of this wire could probably support about 3 or 4 of them all together easily.

Good quality wire, works well for the bailing i was doing. Is a little stiff

Wire was perfect for use as landscape wire to secure irrigation tubing and outdoor lights wiring. Just the right size / gauge as I’ve used thicker gauge wires which weren’t as bendable or easy to use as this 12gaige. This still had plenty of strength so securely anchor tubes/ wires.

Just what i needed for limb training

Good quality wire. I would buy again.

Very sturdy, held itself up well. Made a set of fairy wings with this, cellophane, spray Adhesive and some heat. I wish I could find the pictures, if I do and can edit this I will add.

I have used this 12 gauge wire to fix a chain link fence, and also to fix a chain link door. (Addicts tried to break into the property.) The wire is extremely strong, yet flexible to wrap around as needed. Takes some strength to cue the wire, but if done properly, it is extremely tight and strong

All good

Works well.

it is as expected. Thank you.
