tie wire

Tie Wire
A malleable black wire that is used mainly for tying rebar, but has many other uses in formwork. The basic principal of tie wire is that when it is twisted in a tourniquet (tightening) fashion it does not untwist but remains tight even under load.
Used mainly for tying reinforcing steel in position, it is used in conjunction with end cutters by experienced steel fixers to make very quick connections. At the same time it is a simple matter to snip it off if alterations have to be made.
