Metallics MTW16 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What gauge and length is Metallics MTW16 tie wire?
MTW16 is 16 gauge steel tie wire on a 350 foot reel, one reel per part number. The 16 gauge is the middle-of-the-road choice for hand-twisting: soft enough to wrap and twist with pliers, stiff enough to hold a bundle without creeping. The reel format lets you pull off only what you need and cut it at the point of use.
2) Can 16 gauge steel tie wire be used to support conduit and cable in an electrical rough-in?
That is what this wire is sold for. Metallics MTW16 is a steel binding wire used for securing conduit, bundling cable, cable tray mounting, and panel wire management. It is a binding and temporary-securing wire, not a listed conduit support hanger, so where your inspector wants a rated support at a given interval you still need proper straps, clamps, or trapeze hardware. Use the tie wire for bundling, dressing, and holding runs in position while you set the permanent supports.
3) Do I need a tie wire twister tool, or can I twist 16 gauge tie wire with pliers?
16 gauge twists fine by hand with lineman's pliers or side cutters, and that is the method the install steps describe: wrap the wire around the conduit or bundle, twist it back on itself several turns, snug it with pliers, then trim the tail. A dedicated twister speeds up high-volume work like rebar or repetitive ceiling ties, but nothing beyond cutters and pliers is required for electrical binding at this gauge.
4) Is tie wire strong enough to hang HVAC line sets or ductwork, or should I use strap?
Steel tie wire is listed here for ductwork support, refrigeration line securing, and equipment mounting, and 16 gauge holds well for light restraint and positioning. What it will not do is spread load the way perforated hanger strap or a rod-and-trapeze does, and a single wire loop concentrates load on one point of a line set or duct seam. Use the wire for tying off and dressing lines; use strap or rod where the weight of the duct or the run itself is being carried.
5) Is MTW16 a single item or does it come in multiple sizes?
There is one configuration: model MTW16, 16 gauge, 350 foot steel reel. There is no length or gauge choice to specify when ordering, so the part number alone identifies exactly what ships.
