-aΒ wireΒ is a ‘single’ (/ usuallyΒ ‘cylindrical’) / ‘flexible’ strand (or ‘rod’) of ‘metal’-

.

(‘wires’ are used to bear ‘mechanical loads’ or [‘electricity’ / ‘telecommunications’] signals’)

(‘wire’ is commonly formed by drawing the ‘metal’ through a ‘hole’ in a ‘die’ or ‘draw plate’) 

(‘wire gauges’ come in various ‘standard sizes’, as expressed in terms of a ‘gauge number’)

(the term wire is also used more loosely to refer to a bundle of such ‘strands’ (as in ‘multi-stranded wire’) – which is more correctly termed a ‘wire rope’ (in ‘mechanics’) or a ‘cable’ (in ‘electricity’))

.

(‘wire’ comes in 3 forms…)

‘solid core’

‘stranded’

‘braided’

.

[although usually ‘circular’ in ‘cross-section’, ‘wire cross-sections’ can be…]

‘square’

‘hexagonal’

‘flattened rectangular’

(among other ‘cross-section variants’)

,

(either for…)

‘decorative purposes’

‘technical purposes’

(such as ‘high-efficiency voice coils’ in ‘loudspeakers’)

,

(‘edge-wound coil springs’ (such as the ‘slinky toy’) are made of ‘special flattened wire’)
