Key Benefits
1Precision-Machined Baseplate
Provides superior stability and alignment compared to cold-rolled assemblies.
2Quick-Release Cam Handle
The quick-release cam handle allows for faster stringing and changeover, requiring no resetting of the adjustable rolls
3Versatile Configuration
The Inch Series straighteners are offered in two distinct handling designs, featuring custom configurations and accommodating up to 21 rolls per plane for both vertical and horizontal wire straightening. Sjogren's IS straighteners adeptly manage wire diameters ranging from .0015" to 1.00", setting a new standard for precision in the industry.
4Customizable Precision Grooved Rolls
Standard rolls feature V-grooves with precision ball bearings for various wire sizes and greased for extended life. Optional groove profiles are available upon request to meet specific processing needs. Sjogren precision delivers unmatched quality in virtually any-shaped groove from Vee, to U, including true-to-form U-grooves for precision at its highest and the most accurate angles for rectangular, square and specialty shaped grooves.
Industries & Applications
The IS Wire Straightener delivers precise inch-based wire processing, making it perfect for consistent, medium-to-high volume tasks. However, it may not be the best choice for ultra-flexible or large-diameter wires.

Your straightener orientation will be selected based on your current or proposed production setup. Our straightener orientation sheet can provide visual guidance.
What kind of maintenance is required for these straighteners?
Minimal maintenance is required. The precision ball-bearing-supported rolls are greased for life, ensuring long-lasting performance. Regular inspection is recommended, and other parts are replaced very infrequently, but here is a reference guide for your rolls:
It's all about the roll and the material you are running
| Groove Type | Material | Replacement Frequency |
| VEE | Low Carbon | 9 months |
| VEE | Medium Carbon |
6 months |
| VEE | High Carbon | 3 months |
| VEE | Nonferrous | 12-18 months |
| Radius | Low Carbon | 12 months |
| Radius | Medium Carbon | 9 months |
| Radius | High Carbon | 6 months |
| Radius | Nonferrous | 15-21 months |
Can the IS Wire Straightener withstand high-temperature environments?
Yes, the IS Wire Straightener is built with durable materials and precision machining to perform reliably in high-temperature manufacturing settings.
How does the IS Wire Straightener compare to other models in the Sjogren lineup?
The IS Wire Straightener is optimized for inch-based precision applications and offers high durability. If you need metric configurations, the EC straightener is probably a good fit. If you need ultra-heavy-duty processing, we offer other models, like the HD straightener that may be a better fit.
