• 1x19 - the strongest but also least flexible of wires. Wire strand configuration is 19 strands to make 1 wire. 7x7 - moderately flexible. The smaller sizes up to 4mm are easily looped or bent, 5mm and above is quite stiff to bend. Wire configuration is 7 strands of 7 7x19 - Highly flexible. When tight loops are required, such as thimble looped ends, this is the wire to choose. It is not as strong as 1x19, but only by a small percentage. Wire configuration is 7 strands of 19 wires. Imagine 7 lots of 1x19 rewound together and that's it. This is the most attractive looking of all 3 wires, due to its smooth appearance.
