The publication is a new, definitive industry resource for ferrous wire written by members of the Association and edited by former WAI President Robert M. Shemenski, an industry consultant and president of RMS Consulting, Inc., North Canton, Ohio, USA, a company that provides a range of metallurgical and corrosion engineering services. Dr. Shemenski has taught corrosion science and engineering as an adjunct professor at the University of Akron, USA.

The most recent in a series of handbooks published by WAI, the Ferrous Wire Handbook is presented as a modern-day reference tool for those working directly in the steel wire or manufacturing, engineering, or operations sectors of the industry. At 1,168 pages, the publication’s comprehensive 36 chapters cover a broad range of topics including many of the equipment types, processes, and specialty applications of steel wire manufacturing.

The book begins with a history of the steel industry and the evolution of ferrous steel manufacture and is followed by details on:
  • continuous casting
  • controlled rod cooling
  • rod defects
  • pickling and coating
  • mechanical descaling
  • deformation in cold drawing
  • wiredrawing theory, machinery, and finishing equipment
  • lubrication
  • heat treatment
  • stress relief
  • annealing
  • oil tempering
  • patenting
  • corrosion
  • galvanizing
  • statistical process control
  • bridge rope and strand
  • nails, barbed wire, mechanical springs
Appendices and a complete index are included in the handbook.
