Baling wire is incredibly useful when a bundle of materials needs to be compressed and contained. However, the wire will only work effectively if you know how to tie it. Let&#;s take a look at how to tie baling wire so you can make the most out of this handy equipment.
Do you need baling wire for your next project? Browse our vast selection at Vulcan Wire to find exactly what you&#;re looking for.
Before you learn how to tie baling wire, it&#;s important to take some safety precautions to avoid injury. First, be sure to wear safety glasses. As tension is added to the wire, there is always the possibility that it will snap. In addition to quality eye protection, wearing a sturdy pair of gloves is a good idea as well.
With your knowledge of proper safety measures, you&#;ll be ready to use your baler to complete a bundle. Although the exact steps you will need to take vary slightly from machine to machine, the basic process for a vertical baler goes as follows:
-Insert one end of the baling wire into the slot on the bottom of the baler&#;s plunger (or platen).
-Loop the baling wire around the load. Then, bring it back so that it meets up with the first end in front of the baler.
-Place the end of your baling wire through the loop end and pull some of the slack out of the line. You don&#;t need to remove all slack, however, as the bale should expand and tighten the bundle up nicely.
-To finish the job, bend the free end of the baling wire back against the loop and wrap it.

Again, the proper way to use your baler may vary somewhat from these instructions. That being said, it&#;s worthwhile to read the owner&#;s manual carefully and follow those directions. While it might take you a bit of time to tie your first few bales, you will soon get comfortable with the process and become more efficient.
Opting for cheap baling wire in order to save a few dollars will almost certainly come back to haunt you in the end. Poor quality wire will be more likely to snap than a good product, which is extremely dangerous.
Remember, baling wire is serving an important purpose for your business, so you don&#;t want it to let you down. Buying a good product from a respected and reputable company can go a long way in creating a positive baling experience. With a combination of the right technique and the right supplies, you should be able to complete your baling work quickly and easily.

OK
The company is the world’s best 14 gauge galvanized single loop bale ties supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.
If you're not strapped down, and a bale falls off causing a wreck and someone dies, you might check with your insurance company to see how much they are going to pay and how much you'll be liable for the rest of your life supporting the deceased family after their good lawyer gets done with you. Just sayin. I never used to hook the safety chains on my gooseneck til a lawyer told me that I would be liable in a wreck if my trailer wasn't hooked up properly. I never checked to see if he was right, just figured better safe than sorry.
