Product Specification

5mm 304 Stainless Steel EPQ Wire with Bright Surface for Kitchen & Bath Accessories

Product Introduction

The 5mm 304 Stainless Steel EPQ Wire is designed for manufacturers producing kitchen hardware, bathroom accessories, wire-formed components, racks, hooks, handles, and other stainless steel products where material performance and surface appearance are both important.

Made from AISI 304 stainless steel, the wire combines the corrosion resistance and formability associated with 304 grade with a bright surface finish suitable for visible stainless steel components.

The standard diameter of this product is 5mm, while TOPONE can supply stainless steel wire in a broader 0.15–12mm diameter range according to material grade, surface condition, mechanical requirements, and application.

For applications requiring specific dimensional tolerances or mechanical properties, diameter, surface condition, tensile strength, and delivery condition can be confirmed according to the customer's production requirements.

Product Specifications

Specific tolerance, tensile strength and surface condition should be confirmed according to the required product condition and application.

Why Choose 304 Stainless Steel Wire for Kitchen & Bath Components?

1. 304 Stainless Steel Material

AISI 304 is a widely used austenitic stainless steel grade for general fabrication and consumer products. Its corrosion resistance and formability make it suitable for components exposed to normal indoor humidity, water contact, and everyday handling.

For more demanding environments involving higher chloride exposure or specific chemical conditions, the appropriate stainless steel grade should be selected according to the actual service environment.

2. Bright Surface for Visible Components

The bright surface is suitable for products where the appearance of the wire is part of the finished component.

It can be used for visible wire-formed products such as racks, hooks, holders, baskets, handles, and bathroom accessories, where a clean and uniform metallic appearance is required.

3. 5mm Diameter for Structural Wire Components

The 5mm diameter provides a relatively substantial wire section for products requiring higher rigidity than fine-gauge wire applications.

The final suitability depends on the component design, forming method, loading condition, and required mechanical properties. For this reason, the required wire condition should be specified before production.

4. Multiple Surface and Supply Options

Depending on the application, stainless steel wire can be supplied in different surface conditions, including bright and soap-coated finishes.

Coil and spool packing are available according to production requirements, helping manufacturers select a suitable feeding method for subsequent forming, cutting, welding, or fabrication processes.

Typical Applications

Kitchen Accessories

5mm 304 stainless steel wire can be used for manufacturing:

• Kitchen racks

• Storage baskets

• Utensil holders

• Dish racks

• Hooks

• Kitchen organizers

• Wire frames

• Cabinet and furniture hardware

Bathroom Accessories

Typical applications include:

• Towel racks

• Bathroom hooks

• Shower storage racks

• Soap holders

• Bathroom baskets

• Toilet paper holders

• Wire-form bathroom components

Wire Forming & General Fabrication

The wire can also be processed into custom wire forms, frames, supports, brackets, hooks, and other stainless steel components according to the customer's design.

Surface Selection Guide

The appropriate surface condition depends on the final application and subsequent processing.

Bright Surface

Suitable when the finished component requires a clean metallic appearance and the wire surface will remain visible.

Soap-Coated Surface

Can be considered when the wire will undergo specific forming or drawing operations where lubrication during processing is required.

The recommended surface condition should be confirmed according to the customer's forming process and finished-product requirements.

Quality & Manufacturing Considerations

For stainless steel wire used in kitchen and bathroom accessories, product quality should be evaluated through measurable specifications rather than appearance alone.

Key factors include:

• Stainless steel grade

• Wire diameter

• Dimensional tolerance

• Surface condition

• Tensile strength

• Delivery condition

• Applicable standard

• Coil or spool configuration

• Batch inspection requirements

For customized orders, customers can provide the required diameter, tolerance, surface finish, material grade, mechanical properties, and application. These specifications can then be used to determine the appropriate wire condition.

Packing & Supply

The 5mm 304 stainless steel wire can be supplied in coils or spools according to production and handling requirements.

For volume production, packing specifications such as coil weight, spool type, outer dimensions, and labeling can be confirmed before order production.

TOPONE also supplies stainless steel wire in different diameters and grades for customized applications, allowing manufacturers to select wire according to component design and processing requirements.
