Stainless steel wire is a flexible, strong material crafted from stainless steel, an alloy composed mainly of iron, chromium, and nickel, which grants it significant resistance to rust and corrosion. Stainless steel wire’s notable strength and resistance to extreme temperatures and corrosive environments make it ideal for applications ranging from medical devices and automotive components to construction and home appliances.
