Product Specification

201 Stainless Steel Wire for Screw Manufacturing | 0.15–12mm

Product Introduction

TOPONE 201 stainless steel wire is designed for screw manufacturing, wire forming and other metal forming applications where controlled diameter, high tensile strength and suitable surface conditions are required.

The referenced specification is 0.6mm diameter, hard condition, with a tensile strength of 1750 N/mm². The available diameter range can be supplied from 0.15–12mm, depending on the grade, mechanical requirements and processing condition.

AISI 201 is a Cr-Ni-Mn stainless steel grade commonly selected for applications requiring moderate corrosion resistance and higher work-hardening characteristics. Compared with 300-series grades such as 304 and 316, 201 has a lower nickel content and should therefore be selected according to the actual corrosion environment and forming requirements.

For screw and fastener manufacturers, wire diameter, tensile condition, surface condition and forming process should be considered together when selecting stainless steel wire.

Product Parameters

Mechanical properties and available specifications should be confirmed according to the required diameter, production condition and applicable standard.

201 Stainless Steel Wire for Screw Manufacturing

For screw manufacturing, stainless steel wire selection is not determined by diameter alone. The material grade, wire condition, tensile strength and surface condition can affect the subsequent forming process.

The 0.6mm 201 stainless steel wire shown on this page is supplied in hard condition with a listed tensile strength of 1750 N/mm². This makes the specification relevant to small-diameter wire applications where the purchaser needs a defined mechanical condition rather than simply a nominal stainless steel grade.

For production using cold forming, heading or other mechanical forming processes, buyers should confirm the required wire condition and forming sequence before placing an order.

Surface Options

Bright Surface

Bright stainless steel wire is suitable when a clean metallic appearance and controlled surface condition are required.

Soap Coated Surface

Soap-coated wire provides a lubricated surface condition that can be considered for forming operations where friction between the wire and tooling needs to be managed.

The appropriate surface should be selected according to the forming equipment, tooling, lubrication system and final product requirements.

Applications

Screw and Fastener Manufacturing

201 stainless steel wire can be used as feedstock for selected screw and fastener production where the required mechanical properties and corrosion environment are compatible with AISI 201.

Wire Forming

The wire can also be used for formed wire components where the specified diameter, tensile condition and surface finish match the forming process.

General Metal Components

Other applications may include hardware components, appliance parts and decorative or general-purpose formed metal products where moderate corrosion resistance is sufficient.

Product Advantages

Defined Mechanical Condition

The reference product is supplied in hard condition with a listed tensile strength of 1750 N/mm², giving buyers a clear mechanical parameter for process evaluation.

Wide Diameter Availability

TOPONE can supply stainless steel wire in the 0.15–12mm range, allowing purchasers to evaluate different wire diameters for screw, fastener and wire-forming applications.

Multiple Surface Conditions

Bright and soap-coated surface options are available, allowing the wire surface to be matched with different forming and processing requirements.

Multiple Industry Standards

The product information supports AISI, ASTM, DIN, JIS and GB standards, making it easier to define the required specification for different purchasing markets.

Coil and Spool Packaging

Coil and spool packaging can be selected according to the customer's production equipment and wire-feeding requirements.

How to Select 201 Stainless Steel Wire for Screws

Before purchasing stainless steel wire for screw production, buyers should confirm the following parameters:

1. Material grade: AISI 201 or another stainless steel grade according to the corrosion and mechanical requirements.

2. Wire diameter: Select the diameter according to the screw dimensions and forming process.

3. Mechanical condition: Confirm tensile strength and hardness requirements before production.

4. Surface condition: Choose bright or soap-coated wire according to tooling and lubrication conditions.

5. Applicable standard: Confirm AISI, ASTM, DIN, JIS, GB or the customer's specified standard.

6. Packing method: Select coil or spool according to the wire-feeding equipment.

This specification-based approach helps reduce the risk of selecting wire based only on nominal grade or diameter.
