This specific grade of stainless steel is an alloy that primarily consists of iron, with about 18% chromium and 8% nickel by weight. These elements, combined with a small percentage of carbon, manganese, silicon, and certain other trace elements, provide the alloy with its characteristic strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. SS304 is widely recognised and utilised for its excellent anti-corrosion properties, weldability, and formability. When crafted into round wire, SS304 serves a multitude of applications, ranging from crafting to industrial uses, thanks to its versatile characteristics derived from its unique composition.
