Keep your wax foundation steady and your frames strong with our extra-thin, 26 gauge (.478 mm) steel frame wire. Designed to prevent sagging and shifting, this fine wire supports c omb building and keeps frames from warping—especially under the weight of honey during extraction. Unlike fishing line or picture-hanging wire, steel frame wire resists chewing and holds up over time. Use with eyelets to protect your frame’s side bars, and pair with a Spur Embedder tool to press the wire neatly into your foundation for a tight, professional fit. Tips for Use: Thread wire through pre-drilled holes in a zig-zag or straight pattern Keep wire taut, but avoid over-tightening Use gloves for safety and precision Secure ends with pliers and clip excess Reliable, reusable, and made for real beekeeping work.
