Bonsai Training Wire

Shape, train, and refine your bonsai with our range of anodized aluminium and annealed copper wire. Whether you are positioning fine branches or developing movement in thicker wood, these materials offer different handling characteristics and holding strengths to suit your tree and styling approach.

What's Included

• Anodized Aluminium Wire – soft, easy-to-apply brown wire for branch and trunk training, including work on species with delicate bark such as maples, azaleas and olives
• Japanese Aluminium Wire – made-in-Japan options in 1mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 2.5mm and 3mm diameters for selecting a size suited to the branch being positioned
• Thicker Aluminium Wire – 3.5mm, 4mm, 5mm and 6mm options for work requiring more support than finer aluminium wire provides
• Annealed Copper Wire – Japanese copper wire softened by annealing, then strengthened through work hardening as it is applied, offering strong holding power for pines, junipers and other suitable species

Used by hobbyists and experienced bonsai artists alike, training wire helps establish branch placement and develop a considered silhouette. Select the material and diameter to suit each branch, check regularly as the tree grows, and use cutters rated for the wire's thickness and material.
