Wrapping/Knotting

 

SoftStrand and Super-SoftStrand wires are proven to be the most ‘Finger Friendly’ wires on the market, allowing for quick and easy wire wrapping every time Simply feed SoftStrand or Super-SoftStrand wire through the eyelet or hanger and tie as illustrated below* for a strong, secure knot. Tightly wrap the wire back eight full rotations for the strongest hold. This method of tying will prevent the wire from unraveling and will guarantee a tight, slip-free connection.

*Note: Aside from how the wire is wrapped factors such as hardware and wall constructionmay also affect the maximum picture weight to be used. Therefore, to achieve the safest andstrongest hold, do not exceed the recommended maximum picture weight for each size of SoftStrand and Super-SoftStrand wire.

Using SoftStrand and Super-SoftStrand
SoftStrand and Super-SoftStrand wires are designed to make wrapping and tying wire on pictures faster, easier, and more economical. When using SoftStrand and Super-SoftStrand wires, we recommend following these simple guidelines: *Note: At recommended maximum picture weights, slight initial stretching may occur if the hanging angle of the wire is less than 30°. Knotting as recommended (on next page) and maintaining angles of 30° or greater will prevent unnecessary stretching and/or breakage.
(A) Position eyelets or hangers a minimum of 1/3 down the height of the frame as measured from the top of the picture moulding. (B) String from each side hanger, allowing a minimum 30° angle* for optimum weight distribution.
