    Looking for the name of the piano wire that is spaced around 3/4" with a burlap type rope at the ends roughly the size of a pencil.

    attached image might help identify it... all i need is a name, from there I should be able to find a supplier.

    thanks!

    Fits in a seat cushion right? It's support wire. High tensile spring wire or piano wire. McMaster Carr has it.

    You'll have to buy wire and make it.

    I throw it away and use a heavy cloth or light canvas stretched across the whole spring. Hog rings or hand s***ched to the edges. If it is a totally foam cushion, you can do the same by putting the cloth to the seat frame and glue another piece to the foam. It is a support wire, probably get used at the junkyard, but I don't know of new. Jack

    This is standard material and any furniture upholstery shop will have it. Pretty cheap. Www.duboisfabrics.com has it along with many others.
