304 Stainless Steel Spring Steel Wire Key benefits Durable and corrosion resistant: Made from 304 stainless steel to resist rust and corrosion in wet or humid environments. Reliable spring performance: Designed for good elasticity and repeated flexing, helping components retain shape and function over time. Wide size choice: Available in diameters from 0.4 mm to 2.0 mm to suit small to medium wire-forming tasks. Specifications Name: 304 stainless steel spring steel wire Material: 304 stainless steel Size: diameter 0.4 mm–2.0 mm Features: corrosion resistant, not easy to rust, good elasticity Why customers choose this wire Solves common failure modes: reduces rust-related degradation and loss of spring tension that can cause parts to fail or require frequent replacement. Versatile and easy to work with: suitable for winding, bending, and forming into springs, clips, and precision parts without sacrificing resilience. Consistent quality: 304 stainless steel provides predictable mechanical behavior for repeatable production and prototyping. Performance and compatibility Functions well in indoor and outdoor assemblies where corrosion resistance and elastic recovery matter. Compatible with common spring-making, wire-forming, and fastening processes. Diameter range (0.4–2.0 mm) covers fine electronics springs up to heavier clip and fastener wire. Maintains elasticity under repeated load cycles typical of springs, clips, and retaining rings. Typical applications (examples) Precision springs for switches, sensors, and small mechanical assemblies. Wire forms, clips, and retaining rings for appliances, automotive trim, and industrial fixtures. Prototyping and repair: replacement wire for custom springs, hooks, and small bent components. Practical notes Choose diameter based on required load capacity and bend radius; thinner wire for fine springs and tight bends, thicker wire for higher loads. Standard forming and cutting tools for stainless wire are suitable; consider annealing if large permanent bends are required.
