When you search for baling wire online, you see results with both baling wire and bailing wire mentioned. Newcomers in this industry often become confused about the differences between the two types of wires and wonder which one is more suitable for their purpose. Thankfully, you don’t need to worry about the difference because there is none. Bailing wire and baling wire are both the same product with differently spelled names. The acceptable spelling of this product is “baling” wire though many manufacturers use “bailing” on their website.

What is Baling Wire?

Whether the manufacturer uses baling or bailing, the purpose of the wire is the same. It is used to tie bales of compressed material like cardboard, plastic, paper, etc, in the recycling industry. Baling or bailing wires come in different forms for different kinds of machines so you need to buy something that’s suitable for your machine. Your baling press will come with an owner’s manual, which will recommend the best possible baling wire to use.

Different Types of Baling Wire

One type of baling wire can’t work with all kinds of baling machines. Each machine has a specific requirement. For example, a vertical bale press requires a single loop baling wire. Other options available in the market are:

  • Galvanized wire
  • Black annealed wire
  • Single loop wire
  • Double loop wire

The wires are also available in different gauges like 9,10,11, 12, 13, and 14 gauge. You can consult your owner’s manual to determine what gauge you need. You can also contact us directly if you need help! 855-947-3843 Ext 1
