ABSTRACT:
Wire tensioning apparatus comprises a holder for a reel of wire and first and second tensioning elements arranged to be supported adjacent one end of a held reel. Each tensioning element has at least one annular surface, the annular surfaces on the two elements co-operating to define a non-linear circular passage along which a wire may pass generally radially inwardly, the wire entering the passage at any point in the 360.degree. arcuate extent of the passage. One element has a central aperture, so that wire may spill off a held reel, enter the non-linear passage and leave through the central aperture, tension being imparted by the wire following a zig-zag path as the wire passes through the passage.
