3mm stainless steel wire rope
The 3mm stainless steel wire rope is manufactured from AISI 316 grade stainless steel alloy. Its chemical composition includes 16% chromium, 10% nickel, and 2% molybdenum. This composition provides an ultimate tensile strength of 1200 megapascals. Its construction is typically a 7x7 7 strands with 7 wires per strand configuration. Its precise nominal diameter is 3.00 mm with a production tolerance of ±0.05 mm. The minimum breaking force MBF of this product is 900 kilograms-force. It has a polymer-free coating suitable for operational temperatures from -50 to +400 degrees Celsius.
High flexibility with a minimum bending radius of 15 mm is a key feature. Its bending fatigue resistance exceeds 50,000 cycles under a load of 20% MBF. Its linear weight is approximately 35 grams per linear meter. This wire rope is typically supplied on 100, 250, and 500-meter reels. It can be terminated with stainless steel swage sleeves of equivalent strength. Primary applications are in marine, chemical, and food processing environments. This is due to its exceptional resistance to chloride and acid corrosion.
