302 Stainless Steel Spring Wire

If there is a risk that your springs will come into contact with water then Carbon Steel is going to rust which will impact the performance thus Stainless Steel Spring Wire might be a better option.

If that risk is high and the water will be seawater – then take a look at 316 Stainless Steel Wire.

Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel, resists rust and corrosion, even in humid or chemically exposed environments. This is crucial for applications where springs are exposed to moisture, chemicals, or harsh weather conditions. 

Heat Resistance: Stainless steel springs can maintain their mechanical properties at both high and low temperatures, making them suitable for extreme temperature environments. 

Strength and Durability: Stainless steel offers high tensile strength and good fatigue resistance, allowing them to withstand repeated compression cycles and heavy loads without breaking or deforming. 

Hygiene and Cleanliness: Stainless steel is easy to clean and sanitize, making it a good choice for applications in the medical, pharmaceutical, and food processing industries where strict hygienic conditions are necessary. 

Versatility: The combination of properties makes stainless steel a versatile material for a wide range of applications, including aerospace, automotive, medical devices, and more. 

Aesthetics: Stainless steel has a visually appealing finish, which is an advantage in certain applications where appearance matters.
