The 316L stainless steel wire is an ultra-low carbon version of 316 with a carbon content of max 0.03%, so it has excellent weldability and requires almost no heat treatment after welding. Both 316 and 316L contain molybdenum and are therefore more resistant to corrosion and are suitable for use in marine environments.
Offers quality annealed and cold drawn stainless steel wire with a wire diameter in the range of 0.002-0.125 inch (0.05-3.2 mm), which is mainly used to make stainless steel mesh and filter.
