    Electrical Discharge Machining Wire

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Electrical Discharge Machining Wire.
    Use in wire-cutting EDM machines.
    Also known as spark machining, electrical discharge machining (EDM) uses electrical current to erode a metal workpiece to a desired shape.
    Galvanized—Galvanized wire cuts faster than uncoated wire.
    Hard—Hard wire works better than soft wire in EDM machines with automatic wire threading.
    Soft—Soft wire stays straight as it comes off the spool, making it better than hard wire for EDM machines that do not have automatic wire threading.
