Okay but... You posting is asking for wire for decorative and hobby purposes...
Pernille Kienle Jun 11, 2015:
Same thing Please look at the wire that I'm referring to in my links. It's what you're looking for. It's just the roll that looks different in other countries than Denmark :) The wire looks the same to me and is used for hobby and craft projects (please click on the links provided)

Binding wire

I was actually going to say 'floral wire', which would obviously be barking up the same tree as the rest of the gang. I really think that ought to do it - 'ståltråd' isn't necessarily super heavy duty even though the word 'steel' is right there in the name.
But if you're certain that something stronger is required, then perhaps 'binding wire' is just the thing?

Thanks - I think this is the best solution for my context.

craft wire or artistic wire

Hi Pernille. Thanks for the suggestion, but this is definitely not the same wire. The hobby/craft wire in the links is all copper-based. What I need is galvanised steel for industrial/agricultural use.

paddle wire

Compare the two links. I haven't done any other checking, so proceed with caution!

Hi Charles, please refer to the reply I sent to Pernille. I think the same applies to paddle/florist wire
