Need a dependable stainless steel wire rope? Stainless Steel 316 Wire Rope on MetalMitra comes in multiple constructions and diameters, ready for lifting, hoisting and rigging.
Stainless Steel 316 Wire Rope is made from multiple steel wires stranded together around a fibre or steel core to provide high tensile strength, flexibility and fatigue resistance for load-handling applications.
Grade 316 is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel with better resistance to chlorides and pitting than 304. Stainless steel balances corrosion resistance, strength, hygiene and easy fabrication, and with austenitic, ferritic, martensitic and PH families there is a grade for almost every service condition.
