AISI 316 Stainless Steel Wire
AISI 316 is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel, providing enhanced corrosion resistance compared to 304.
Our AISI 304, AISI 304L, AISI 316, and AISI 316L stainless steel wires offer exceptional corrosion resistance, strength, and flexibility. These wires are widely used in industries such as food processing, automotive, marine, and construction. AISI 304 and AISI 304L provide excellent resistance to general corrosion, while AISI 316 and AISI 316L offer enhanced protection against chloride-induced corrosion, making them perfect for harsh environments like coastal areas and chemical industries.
