About California Fine Wire Co.
California Fine Wire Co. was founded in June 1961 by Michael A. Greenelsh in Grover Beach, California. Starting with a single wire drawing machine, the company has grown into a multi‑million‑dollar operation supplying specialty wire and ribbon worldwide. The company manufactures fine and ultra‑fine wire in round and flat profiles, with diameters from 0.0004″ to 0.125″. Core processes include wire drawing, enamel insulation coating (ceramic, PTFE, nylon, polyester), PTFE insulation, electroplating, flat‑ribbon production, annealing, stranding, cutting, straightening, grinding, polishing, and custom spooling. CFW operates 25 enamel coating machines and maintains an in‑house testing laboratory capable of dimensional measurement to 0.00001″ resolution (±0.00005″ accuracy), tensile testing, and resistance measurement. Founder Michael A. Greenelsh emphasized that the company’s real specialty is fulfilling customers’ specific needs, no matter how small or unusual. This philosophy, combined with ISO 9001‑certified quality systems and decades‑experienced staff, underpins CFW’s focus on custom solutions for demanding environments.
