Bend-and-Stay Corrosion-Resistant
316 Stainless Steel Wire
Bend this wire and it will stay in place. It's widely used as tying and locking wire. Made of 316/316L stainless steel, it has less carbon than standard 316 for better weldability. The addition of molybdenum gives this material excellent corrosion resistance. Use it in a variety of marine and chemical-processing applications.

Easy-to-Form Nickel Chromium Alloy
- Temper Rating: Softened
- Tensile Strength: 100,000 psi
- Specifications Met: ASTM B267, ASTM B344
Bend this wire and it will stay in place. This nickel-chromium, often called Chromel C, provides effortless formability. Use it for heating elements, resistance windings, and hot-wire cutters.
Hardened Undersized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own jobbers'-length drill bits. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.
| Dia. | Dia. Tolerance | Drill Bit Size | Lg. | Mechanical Finish | Straightness Tolerance | Each | |
| 0.036" | -0.0002" to 0" | 64 | 1 1/2" | Precision Ground | 0.001" | 00000000 | 00000 |
Hardened Oversized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
Also known as reamer blanks, these rods have an oversized diameter that allows for finishing to your exact requirements. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

Chemical-Resistant Coated Small-Diameter
Braided Wire—Not for Lifting
For use in the most demanding environments, the FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) coating on this braided wire has excellent chemical and weather resistance. Made of 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope has good corrosion resistance. This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility. Rope is lubricated to reduce wear. Preformed wire rope maintains its shape when cut and resists unraveling.
Note: When attaching fittings to coated wire rope, the coating must be removed from the installation area.
Extra-Flexible Low-Stretch Coated
Small-Diameter Braided Wire—Not for Lifting
More wires per strand than other wire rope provides the flexibility required for repeat bending over drums and pulleys. For use in precision mechanical applications, this rope is stretched during fabrication to minimize elongation under load. The nylon coating protects the wire from abrasion. Made of 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope has good corrosion resistance. Rope is lubricated to reduce wear.
Note: When attaching fittings to coated wire rope, the coating must be removed from the installation area.
