About Apex Wire Products Co Inc

Apex Wire Products Co., Inc. has operated from Franklin Park, Illinois, since 1940. The company specializes in precision wire forming and metal fabrication, serving industrial customers from a facility near Chicago. The company provides CNC wire forming for diameters from 0.015 to 0.472 inches, using multi-axis equipment to produce complex multi-plane geometries in stainless, low-carbon, spring steels, copper alloys, and specialty grades. In-house capabilities include MIG, TIG, and resistance welding, metal brazing, standard and custom threading, swaging, piercing, and wire straightening and cutting up to 0.750 inches. The shop handles prototype through high-volume runs with traceable documentation at each stage. Customers span lighting (joist brackets), food and beverage (stainless coffee baskets), education (horizon cradle teaching tools), transportation (bent bolts, U-bolts for automotive and rail), and medical (surgical instruments, implants). The firm also supplies wire components for general industrial assemblies. Apex emphasizes consolidated in-house production—forming, welding, brazing, threading, and finishing under one roof—to reduce lead times and simplify supply chains. Its in-house tooling and fixture design allows rapid adaptation to special shapes, and every order ships with complete material and process traceability.
