SuperSoftstrand 500-Feet Picture Wire Vinyl Coated Stranded Stainless Steel

I’ve used this product for well over 10 years on my professional art. It is durable, easy to use, leaves a very clean look, and doesn’t tear up my hands. I have hung large framed watercolors with glass and fill it using this wire, up to 48 x 48“ pieces. I have repeatedly purchased spools of this wire

I picked up a freshly framed print from a framer friend of mine and noticed how neatly his back wire was wrapped. I asked if he had a machine that does the wrapping so neatly. No, he said he uses this vinyl coated wire and that it just wraps neatly. I exhibit prints throughout the year and frame most of my own exhibit prints because they are fairly straightforward to frame (I give the more artistic frame jobs to my friend the professional) and until this day I had always used the bare stranded steel and not only was it messy, but it often left me with little bloody holes and slices in my fingers. As soon as I got home from the frame shop I logged onto amazon and looked for the vinyl coated wire. My framing life has been changed forever. This stuff is so easy to work with and just as my friend said, it wraps perfectly. I have no cut fingers and the wire feels incredibly secure. I wish I had known about this stuff before now. And this large roll is not going to be finished any time soon so it really is cost effective to purchase the wire this way. As far as I am concerned this is one of those near perfect products. BOTTOM LINE: if you do your own framing you arent going to find a better wire. Dont go back to those uncoated wires

Love the coating. Keeps from ripping my fingers to pieces.

Professional looking wire for my frames, durable, long lasting, and easy on the fingers.

Perfect for our needs. Great cable for hanging pictures at graduation party. Love this!

Fast shipping great wire

No more slivers of wire to poke you when attaching a wire to hang your artworks. Always a little give if you need to stretch it! I love to add a polished finish, but I mostly use it because its easy on my hands.

Much easier to work with than the braided galvanized wire I was using before. Ive hung several of my paintings since I got it and its worked perfectly.

The product is is great and is just as advertised but it was inadequately packaged for shipping - a mailer envelope was used rather than a box - and so the plastic reel was broken off in several places during transport. I did not return it or request a refund because the plastic shielded wire was undamaged.
