Stainless steel wire rods are categorized based on their specific grades and applications. Common classifications include:
-
Austenitic Stainless Steel Wire Rods: Known for their excellent corrosion resistance and high ductility.
-
Ferritic Stainless Steel Wire Rods: Offer good corrosion resistance and are less expensive than austenitic grades.
-
Martensitic Stainless Steel Wire Rods: Characterized by high strength and hardness, suitable for applications requiring wear resistance.
