When it comes to spring and wire form performance, design and precision manufacturing get a lot of attention — and rightly so. But there’s one critical factor that often gets overlooked: the raw wire material. The journey from a coil of steel wire to a finished spring begins long before the first bend or coil. At Ace Wire Spring & Form Co., Inc., we know that the quality of the material we start with can determine how well the final product performs — and how long it lasts in the field.
That’s why we’re proud to work with trusted partners like Industrial Steel & Wire (ISW), a leading family-owned North American supplier known for quality, consistency, and service-just like Ace!
Springs are everywhere — in medical devices, agricultural equipment, power generation systems, and more — and they’re expected to perform under pressure. If the wire isn’t manufactured to spec, it can lead to costly failures in form, function, or fatigue resistance.
Some of the most important wire characteristics include:
Partnering with a reliable material supplier ensures that these requirements are met from the beginning, minimizing rework and maximizing reliability.
Ace Wire Spring has been manufacturing custom springs and wire forms for over 85 years. We work with a wide variety of materials — stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy wire, and specialty metals — to create compression, extension, torsion, and custom springs for demanding applications.
To serve our customers, we need wire that performs. That’s where ISW comes in. Their wide selection of industrial wire products, including low carbon, high carbon, stainless, and galvanized wire, gives us the flexibility to engineer springs for a variety of industries, including:
When we source material from ISW, we know we’re starting with wire that meets our exacting standards — and those of our customers.
Industrial Steel & Wire has been a dependable supplier for manufacturers across North America for decades. Their commitment to quality and consistency makes them an ideal partner in our spring manufacturing process.
From wire for prototyping to large-scale production orders, ISW delivers the raw materials that help us turn concepts into precision-engineered components. Their U.S.-based inventory and responsive service help us reduce lead times and meet tight delivery schedules — a must in today’s supply chain environment.
Springs may be small components, but they play a big role in product performance. The quality of a spring starts with the quality of its wire — and that’s why it’s so important to work with trusted suppliers throughout the manufacturing process.
At Ace Wire Spring, we’re proud to deliver high-performance springs to customers across industries, and we’re equally proud to work with partners like Industrial Steel & Wire to make it possible.
