Which wire?

[cumbriasteve]

Need a 15kg of 0.8 wire, seems the prices are around £33 incl delivery for Murex, now I may be having a moments madness but notice some advertised as copper coated, the Murex isn't...are they all copper coated?

Will have a browse and see how that is priced compared to the Murex...cheers

Most is yes, however, Murex/Esab do a non coppered wire. They come in 18kg reels though.
If you dont use it all that much, your probably better off with the copper coated.
Id imagine that 99% of other steel wires will be coated, even if it doesn't say so.

Thanks Hitch...I presume the copper coating will be better for anti rusting purposes
