0.15–12mm Stainless Steel Annealed Wire for Building and Industrial Applications
0.15–12mm Stainless Steel Annealed Wire for Building and Industrial Applications
Product Introduction
TOPONE Stainless Steel Annealed Wire is supplied in a soft annealed condition for applications that require suitable wire workability, controlled mechanical properties and stainless steel material characteristics.
The available diameter range is 0.15–12mm. Different stainless steel grades, including 201, 302, 304, 316 and 316L, can be selected according to the required application, corrosion environment and mechanical properties.
The wire is available with bright or soap-coated surface options. The annealed condition is suitable for selected bending, forming and fabrication processes where a softer wire condition is required.
Typical applications include building industry components, link chains, wire rope, wire forming and general industrial fabrication. The appropriate grade, diameter and mechanical properties should be selected according to the actual working conditions and downstream manufacturing process.

Actual mechanical properties should be confirmed according to the selected grade, diameter and customer specificationbefore production.
Stainless Steel Grade Selection
201 Stainless Steel
201 stainless steel can be considered for general applications where cost-sensitive material selection and basic stainless steel properties are required.
302 Stainless Steel
302 stainless steel is an austenitic stainless steel grade commonly used for wire products and applications requiring a combination of forming characteristics and mechanical properties.
304 Stainless Steel
304 is widely used for general industrial applications where stainless steel corrosion resistance and forming characteristics are required.
316 / 316L Stainless Steel
316 and 316L contain molybdenum and are commonly selected for applications requiring higher resistance to certain corrosive environments compared with standard 304 stainless steel.
The appropriate grade should be determined according to the actual exposure conditions, including moisture, chemicals, chlorides and operating temperature.
Surface Options
Bright Surface
Bright stainless steel wire provides a clean metallic appearance and can be selected for applications where surface appearance and surface condition are important.
Soap-Coated Surface
Soap-coated wire provides a different surface condition that can be considered for certain wire-forming, bending and fabrication processes.
Surface selection should be based on the customer's processing equipment and downstream manufacturing requirements.
Applications
Building Industry
Stainless steel annealed wire can be used for selected building and construction-related components where the material grade, diameter and mechanical properties meet the application requirements.
Typical uses may include formed wire components, fastening-related products and other fabricated metal parts.
Link Chains
Annealed stainless steel wire can be considered for selected link-chain manufacturing processes. Wire diameter and mechanical properties should be selected according to chain dimensions, forming requirements and service conditions.
Wire Rope
Selected stainless steel annealed wire specifications can be used in wire rope-related manufacturing processes. The required grade, diameter, tensile strength and surface condition should be confirmed according to the rope construction and application.
Wire Forming
The soft annealed condition is suitable for selected bending and wire-forming processes.
Typical products may include:
-
Wire forms
-
Clips
-
Hooks
-
Brackets
-
Loops
-
Formed industrial components
Actual forming suitability depends on the wire diameter, geometry, tooling and required mechanical properties.
General Industrial Fabrication
The 0.15–12mm diameter range provides options for different fabrication requirements, from relatively fine wire applications to larger-diameter formed components.
How to Select Stainless Steel Annealed Wire
1. Select the Stainless Steel Grade
Choose the grade according to the required corrosion resistance, forming characteristics, service environment and material specification.
For general applications, 304 can be considered. For environments with higher corrosion requirements, 316 or 316L may need to be evaluated.
2. Confirm the Wire Diameter
Wire diameter should be selected according to the finished component dimensions, forming process and dimensional tolerance.
The available diameter range is:
0.15–12mm
3. Confirm the Mechanical Properties
Tensile strength and elongation can vary according to grade, diameter and annealing condition.
If the wire will be used for forming, bending, chain production or wire rope manufacturing, the required mechanical properties should be confirmed before production.
4. Select the Surface Condition
Choose between:
Bright Surface / Soap-Coated Surface
The surface should be selected according to the downstream manufacturing process and final product requirements.
5. Confirm the Applicable Standard
Depending on the customer's market and technical requirements, applicable standards may include ASTM, JIS, EN, DIN and GB.
The specific standard and inspection requirements should be confirmed before production.
Dimensional Tolerance
Wire diameter tolerance is an important consideration for forming and fabrication applications.
Typical diameter tolerance ranges vary according to wire diameter. For example:
| Diameter Range | Diameter Tolerance | Oval Tolerance |
|---|---|---|
| 0.16–0.28mm | ±0.010mm | ≤0.010mm |
| 0.28–0.50mm | ±0.013mm | ≤0.013mm |
| 0.50–0.90mm | ±0.015mm | ≤0.015mm |
| 0.90–1.60mm | ±0.020mm | ≤0.020mm |
| 1.60–2.80mm | ±0.030mm | ≤0.030mm |
| 2.80–5.00mm | ±0.040mm | ≤0.040mm |
| 5.00–9.00mm | ±0.050mm | ≤0.050mm |
| 9.00–12.00mm | ±0.060mm | ≤0.060mm |
Actual dimensional tolerances should be confirmed according to the selected product specification and applicable standard.
