TIRE WIRE
M.A. Associates works directly with various steel mills throughout the United States by providing high quality tire wire. We also work with our suppliers to implement the correct equipment configuration to produce high quality tire wire. This requires the liberation and removal of the tire rubber and fiber to ensure acceptable performance. These steel mills recycle the tire wire in an electric arc or blast furnace into usable cast iron and steel products.
The typical scrap tire has two different types of steel wire, which includes bead wire and belt wire. Every tire has two beads that are incorporated as part of the inside radius of the tire, next to the rim, and represent the largest diameter wire strands in the tire. The belt or tread wires are much thinner and are grouped together into a “weave pattern” on the tread for added tire strength.
QUALITY
At M.A. Associates, we know that it’s important to make sure the tire wire content meets our client’s quality specifications. Our processors shred and grind scrap tires to a nominal 1.5″ minus size to achieve proper wire liberation from the tire rubber. We constantly monitor our facilities’ wire production to achieve a high quality, high steel content product.

Stage 1: A belt conveyor feeds whole scrap tires into a primary shredder. This process utilizes slow speed, high torque equipment and shreds into pieces that are between 3” and 15”.
Stage 2: The “tire shred” is further processed using higher-speed, secondary shredding and grinding equipment that reduces the tire shreds to 2” minus size.
Stage 1: Shaking deck with magnet pulls out tire wire from rubber to be processed.
Stage 2: The tire wire material is pulled off the magnet onto a belt.
Stage 3: From the conveyor belt, the tire wire is added to a pile that will eventually be shipped for processing.
