Hi Duane,

Kencove Farm Fence Supplies sells a number of different types of fence 
wires, including steel.  I've called and talked to them in the past 
concerning small diameter fiberglass rod and they were very approachable 
so they may be a good source of information for no-stretch wire.

Also, if you order their catalog, you'll receive a new one in the mail 
several times a year.
