Trafilerie Piazza invests in high-strength tie rods

Trafileria Piazza Guido e Figlio Srl, a long-established Italy-based company specializing in the production of steel wire and bars, has recently upgraded its machine shop with the purchase of a used 50-ton ORT thread rolling machine. This strategic investment enables the company to expand its production capacity, allowing it to roll high-strength tie rods up to M60 in 8.8 and 10.9 grades.

An expanded range of semi-finished products

Founded in 1964, Trafileria Piazza Guido e Figlio has evolved from a small workshop into a well-established industrial business, relocating to two facilities to broaden its range of drawn wire-based semi-finished products for the industry.

The company offers a wide range of low carbon steel and stainless steel products, also for cold forming, including:

- drawn wire with diameters from 4.4 mm to 20 mm
- straightened and cut-to-length bars
- partially threaded bars from M5 to M42
- fully threaded bars from M6 to M42
- high-strength tie rods in 8.8 and 10.9 grades
- U-bolts to customer specifications

New opportunities for the structural sector

Thanks to the recent investment, Trafileria Piazza Guido e Figlio is now able to process high-strength tie rods up to M60, significantly expanding its offering for high mechanical performance structural applications. Key areas of use include bridges, viaducts, industrial plants, wind turbines, and post-tensioned reinforced concrete structures.

This technological upgrade allows the company to respond more effectively to the needs of sectors such as construction and infrastructure, where material quality and strength are essential.

Commitment to quality and flexibility

The raw materials used by Trafileria Piazza Guido e Figlio are 100% sourced from Europe, ensuring consistently high quality standards. As for delivery times, the company is equipped to quickly supply small quantities of wire and bars, from 500 kg to 30,000 kg, with customized processing; deliveries are made using its own fleet for maximum punctuality.
