A J Wilcock

The secret behind australian wire’s success

A J Wilcock world famous “Australian Wire”

Although our wires have been imitated by many manufacturers over the years, A J Wilcock Australian wire remains the global market leader in high tensile stainless steel archwires.

For over fifty years, “Australian Wire” has been a household name in orthodontics. The extraordinary properties of these wires are due to the research and fine engineering skills employed in the processing of the wires. Wilcock wires are well known for their resilience and ability to withstand masticatory forces as well as being able to maintain their shape even when auxiliaries and elastics are used. There is no other wire which opens the bite as effectively as Wilcock wire.
