We've been tasked in my department with manufacturing an item (or purchasing the item) to add to one of our products. Only problem is this: I have no idea how it is made or who makes it for possible purchase.
The item is really rather simple. A carbon steel ring, about 12" in diameter, is wrapped with copper wire. The wrap twists around the ring, totally covering the stell. The wrap goes around the circumference 6 times, where the two ends are then connected via a pressed fitting. The wrap must be done after the carbon steel has been made into a ring, and must be very tight and consistent in its spacing. Because of this, wrapping by hand is not acceptable.
Help??
