Stainless Steel 316/316L/316Ti Wire is a premium corrosion-resistant alloy used extensively in marine, chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing industries. These wires are particularly valued for their enhanced resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride environments. Labdhi Metals, a well-established manufacturer, stockist, and exporter, supplies high-quality SS 316, 316L, and 316Ti wires that meet global standards and are known for their strength, formability, and durability in aggressive environments.
SS 316 Wire is a molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel that offers superior corrosion resistance compared to 304-grade wires, especially in acidic and chloride-rich environments. SS 316L Wire, with a lower carbon content, is preferred for welding applications as it minimizes carbide precipitation and improves weldability without compromising corrosion resistance. SS 316Ti Wire contains a titanium stabilizer which enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding or prolonged high-temperature exposure, making it ideal for pressure vessels and heat exchangers.
As a reliable stockist, Labdhi Metals maintains a large inventory of stainless steel wires in various diameters, tempers (soft, half hard, full hard), and finishes such as bright, matte, and polished. These wires are available in spool, coil, and cut-length form, and can be used for weaving, mesh production, springs, fasteners, welding electrodes, and more. The company ensures strict quality control and dimensional accuracy through in-house testing and inspection protocols.
As a global exporter, Labdhi Metals supplies SS 316/316L/316Ti wire to countries in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Americas. The wires are manufactured as per ASTM A580 and EN standards, and are provided with mill test certificates, third-party inspection reports, and export-compliant packaging. Their products are trusted by OEMs, contractors, and industrial manufacturers across a wide range of sectors.
