Q. How thick is tie wire?

Most rebar tie wire is somewhere between 14 to 18-gauge. When measuring the thickness of a wire the gauge number should be used. Before pouring concrete a user may quickly attach a rebar in place using 16.5-Gauge Rebar Connect Wire or tie many rebars together with one another. It has been annealed to make it more flexible which results in a more secure and close-fitting tie. It is soft and malleable wire that supports multiple types of ties including saddle ties wrap and saddle ties and figure-8 ties and it helps assure consistency in their application.
