#3.5 TIE WIRE 16 GAUGE 20 COILS 70 LB BOX

Description

For large scale concrete jobs—footings, slabs, walls, rebar cages—where cost efficiency and field performance matter, the MAR-MAC CBCWBLK16-3.5 contractor tie wire delivers. Manufactured to meet structural tie-down requirements for commercial concrete contractors, this wire provides reliable tying utility at a competitive unit cost.

Key Features

• Gauge/Size: 16 gauge (standard for heavy tie-down applications)
• Packaging: 20 coils per carton, with each coil ~3.5 lb; total carton weight ˜ 70 lb. 
• Finish / Material: Black annealed high-carbon steel. The part number listed is Black, 16 CBCWBLK16-3.5BX. 
• Manufacturing Standard: Conforms to ASTM A853. 
• Steel Grade: Produced using C1006 or C1008 grade steel. 
• Wire Character: Dead-soft annealed for ease of tie-forming and minimal spring-back.

Why Commercial Concrete Contractors Choose It

• High-volume job capability: A 70 lb box with 20 coils supports large pours, high rebar density work, and large-scale slab or formwork jobs—reducing packaging changes and downtime.
• Reliable performance: The dead-soft annealed 16 gauge wire is ideal for rebar tying tools and manual tying alike, offering consistent wrapping, knot-tying, and minimal fatigue during high-cycle use.
• Cost-efficient unit cost: “Contractor”-tier product aimed at providing strong field performance without premium specialty pricing—ideal for budget-driven, high-volume commercial operations.
• Compatibility: Suitable for tying standard reinforcing bars, chairs, structural framing rebar, and reinforcement cages—especially in concrete construction where tie-wire quality impacts tying speed and safety.
• Field ease: Because the wire is annealed and conforms to ASTM specs, it reduces rejected ties, broken wires, or re-ties—saving labor on job sites.

Typical Jobsite Applications

• Tying reinforcement in large slabs, beams, columns, and foundations
• Rebar cage tying in infrastructure, industrial, and commercial builds
• Formwork reinforcement tying for walls, footings, and elevated slabs
• Any high-volume commercial concrete job where speed, reliability, and cost per tie matter
