Product Specification

OEM 304/316/316L Stainless Steel Wire 0.15–12mm for Custom Applications

Product Introduction

TOPONE OEM stainless steel wire is available in 304, 316 and 316L grades for industrial manufacturing and custom wire applications. The diameter range is 0.15–12mm, with bright and soap-coated surface options.

The wire can be specified according to material grade, diameter, tolerance, surface condition, mechanical requirements and applicable standards. This makes it suitable for manufacturers who need stainless steel wire matched to a specific forming process, component design or working environment.

For OEM purchasing, selecting stainless steel wire by diameter alone is not enough. Material grade, mechanical condition, surface, tolerance and final application should be considered together to define the appropriate specification.

Product Specifications

304 Stainless Steel Wire

304 stainless steel wire is widely used for general industrial and formed-wire applications. It can be considered for wire forms, racks, hangers, mesh, springs and other components where the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of 304 meet the working requirements.

The required diameter, tolerance, surface condition and mechanical condition should be selected according to the manufacturing process and final application.

316 Stainless Steel Wire

316 stainless steel wire can be considered for applications where higher corrosion-resistance requirements need to be evaluated. It is commonly selected for certain humid, marine and chloride-containing environments.

The final material selection should be based on the actual service environment, applicable standard and required mechanical properties.

316L Stainless Steel Wire

316L stainless steel wire is a low-carbon stainless steel option for applications where a 316L material specification is required.

The appropriate diameter, surface and mechanical condition should be determined according to the customer's forming process, technical specification and final application.

Diameter Range: 0.15–12mm

TOPONE stainless steel wire is available in diameters from 0.15mm to 12mm.

Different wire diameters can be selected according to the finished component, forming method and dimensional requirements. For applications requiring tighter dimensional control, the required tolerance should be specified together with the nominal diameter.

When placing an OEM inquiry, buyers should confirm:

• Material grade

• Wire diameter

• Diameter tolerance

• Surface condition

• Mechanical condition

• Applicable standard

• Final application

• Required quantity

• Coil or spool requirements

Surface Options

Bright Stainless Steel Wire

Bright stainless steel wire provides a clean metallic surface and can be used for applications where surface appearance and a bright finish are required.

The surface condition should be selected according to the customer's forming, processing and finished-product requirements.

Soap-Coated Stainless Steel Wire

Soap-coated stainless steel wire provides a lubricated surface condition for selected drawing and forming applications.

It can be considered when the downstream manufacturing process requires additional surface lubrication during wire processing.

Applications

Spring Manufacturing

Stainless steel wire can be used for compression springs, extension springs, torsion springs and other spring components when the selected grade and mechanical condition meet the spring design requirements.

Wire Forming

The wire can be processed into clips, hooks, brackets, retaining components and other custom formed-wire products.

Racks and Hangers

304 stainless steel wire can be used for racks, hangers, baskets and other wire products where the material and surface requirements are suitable.

Wire Mesh

Stainless steel wire can be used for woven and formed mesh applications. Wire diameter and surface condition should be selected according to mesh opening and manufacturing requirements.

Industrial Components

304, 316 and 316L stainless steel wire can be evaluated for various industrial components where corrosion resistance, forming requirements and material specifications need to be considered.

Product Advantages

Multiple Stainless Steel Grades

304, 316 and 316L grades provide different material options for industrial and OEM applications. The appropriate grade can be selected according to the working environment and technical requirements.

Wide 0.15–12mm Diameter Range

The 0.15–12mm diameter range covers fine wire and larger industrial wire sizes for different manufacturing requirements.

Multiple Surface Options

Bright and soap-coated surfaces are available for different processing, forming and appearance requirements.

OEM Specification Support

Specifications can be defined according to material grade, diameter, tolerance, surface condition, mechanical requirements, applicable standard and packaging.

Application-Based Selection

Stainless steel wire should be selected according to the complete application requirements rather than diameter alone. Material grade, working environment, forming process and finished component requirements should be considered together.

How to Select Stainless Steel Wire

Choose 304 Stainless Steel Wire

304 can be considered for general stainless steel wire applications where its corrosion resistance, forming characteristics and mechanical properties are suitable for the working environment.

Choose 316 Stainless Steel Wire

316 can be considered when the application has more demanding corrosion-resistance requirements, including certain marine, humid or chloride-containing environments.

Choose 316L Stainless Steel Wire

316L can be considered when the customer's material specification requires a low-carbon 316 grade.

The final grade should be selected according to the actual working conditions, manufacturing process and applicable technical standard.

OEM Customization

For customized stainless steel wire, buyers are recommended to provide the following information:

1. Stainless steel grade

2. Wire diameter

3. Diameter tolerance

4. Surface condition

5. Mechanical condition

6. Tensile strength requirement, if applicable

7. Applicable standard

8. Coil or spool weight

9. Packaging requirements

10. Final application

11. Required quantity

Technical drawings, existing material specifications or finished-product requirements can also be provided when precise specification matching is required.

Quality and Specification Control

For industrial stainless steel wire, quality requirements should be defined through measurable technical specifications.

Important purchasing specifications can include:

• Material grade

• Wire diameter

• Diameter tolerance

• Surface condition

• Mechanical condition

• Tensile strength

• Applicable standard

• Coil or spool specification

• Packaging requirements

For repeat orders, maintaining the same agreed material, dimensional and processing specifications provides a clear technical reference for subsequent purchasing.
