We keep stock of AISI 316 and 304 Stainless Steel Wire Rope from 0.5mm up to 26mm in various constructions including: 1X19, 7X7, 7X19 and 6X36 wire core.
Type 304 stainless steel is the standard alloy for use in wire rope and cable. It has about the same strength as galvanized rope or cable but is much more corrosion resistant. We can use it in most industrial atmospheres. It has acceptable corrosion resistance when used in marine and salt water.
Type 316 stainless steel is the standard high corrosion resistant steel for rope and cable. It is resistant to many chemicals in the pulp and paper, photographic, food processing and textile industries. It has the best pitting resistance in marine and salt water, and we can use it in temperatures up to 480ºC.
