Firing Wire  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

The more than one-hundred-year-old history of the wire mills in Cologne-Mülheim began in 1873. Tradition and experience form the basis for our present, highly modern production of extremely high-quality technical wires - wires, without which our life today would no longer be imaginable.
Customer orientation, quality and the quest for even better solutions to problems provide the driving force for the actions of our specialized and highly-motivated team.
DWK concentrates on the production of steel wires used mainly for:

• Prestressing steel wires and strands
• Spring steel wires
• Steel wire for roperies
• Wires and strands for cable bridges
• Wires for the cable industry

Modern plant and machinery, an efficient and qualified staff and a long-established quality management system guarantee that the high level of technical requirements demanded of our products are met.
The wire mill in Cologne has always been well known for its innovative ideas. One of our main tasks today continues to be the continuous improvement of our products and processes, often in cooperation with our customers and suppliers.
Products of DWK are to be found worldwide, spread throughout all 5 continents in bridges, cars, machines and power supply etc.

Hereby we would like to present our new product catalogue for 2011. Since our mission is to develop and deliver lightning
protection solutions that meet the expectations of our customers, in 2011 we continue improving the production process.
In 2010 we introduced new anti – corrosion solutions for SILVER and PLATINIUM, series. The previous coverage has received
the name gold. Additional explanations you will find in “informations” chapter.
We know our customers want our products to be compliant with current standards, corrosion resistant and easily installable.
Therefore all our solutions meet those expectations. Additionally our team of consultants offers assistance in designing lightning
protection systems, and our production department is ready to manufacture unusual components.
As the only polish company in the field of lightning protection we have decided to maintain a standard to apply 12 μm thick
galvanic coating and yellow chromating. Electrogalvanised components are fabricated according to the standard pn-en
12329:2002 (corrosion protection of metals. Electrodeposited coatings of zinc with supplementary treatment on iron or steel).
Parameter correctness of the coatings on our products is supervised by the personnel of the galvanising plant where the latest
state-of-the-art methods and third-generation chemical agents are used to ensure the highest anticorrosion properties. We
also apply an additional sealing in the form of an exceptionally corrosion resistant organic polymer film to a galvanic coating (fe/
zn12/c/t2 according to the standard pn-en 1403:2002).
We galvanise all components – even screws and nuts – by ourselves. Hot-dip galvanised steel components fulfil the requirements
of the standard pn-en iso 1461:2000 (hot-dip galvanised coatings on fabricated iron and steel articles. Specifications and test
methods) and pn-en 13811:2005 (sherardizing. Zinc diffusion coatings on ferrous products. Specification; this applies to small
components). We use only proven quality certified materials. Our products were positively tested in a salt spray chamber proving
their excellence. The comparison of anticorrosion resistance of components available on the polish market can be found at
http://www.Ah.Com.Pl/information. The advantages of the aforementioned technological process enabled us to grant a 3-year
anticorrosion warranty for our products.
The company A.H. Hardt sp.j. Offers over 1000 variations of electrogalvanised, hot-dip galvanised, copper and brass
lightning protection components. On request we produce stainless steel components. We can also sherardise some of the
components.
All our products are fabricated with the use of instruments thus being repeatable. In compliance with the iso 9001:2000 procedures
we issue certificates of conformity, and according to the “b” sign certificate we can issue certificates of quality.
The company protects its solutions by means of patenting utility models with the patent office of the republic of poland. Having
registered 24 utility models we are the leader in the industry. In order to protect our customers from purchasing counterfeit
merchandise we mark our components with the company’s logo. Additionally our products have barcodes (ean13).
Our research and development department ensures not only that the offered components satisfy our standards, but also that
they comply with existing regulations and customers’ demands. The offered solutions are easily installable since they require the
use of only one type of spanner. The proper selection of dimensions of the products allows for sufficiently strong connections.
Information regarding novelties is first published at our website http://www.Ah.Com.Pl.
We make every effort to ensure that our offer is distinguished first of all by high quality. We implement our solutions with great
care. All our systems will guarantee you the comfort of installation and safety of use.
With kind regards,
Adam Hardt
