Things to Note (Limitations)
The 201 SS Wire has constraints:
- Corrosion: Less resistant than 304 in chloride or humid conditions.
- High Temperatures: Prolonged exposure above 700°C may weaken properties.
- Pitting: Vulnerable in saltwater or acidic settings.
Our team can recommend alternatives for tougher environments.
Corrosion Data
| Environment | Corrosion Resistance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Atmospheric (Dry) | Good | Resists rust in dry, non-humid conditions. |
| Fresh Water | Good | Suitable for non-chlorinated water exposure. |
| Mild Chemicals | Moderate | Handles dilute acids; less effective with strong chemicals. |
| Saltwater (Coastal) | Fair | Prone to pitting and rust in saline environments. |
| High Humidity | Fair to Moderate | Corrosion risk increases with prolonged moisture. |

Welding and Fabrication Tips
Welding 201 SS Wire requires care:
- TIG Welding: Preferred for precision, especially with 201 ss wire mesh.
- MIG Welding: Works for thicker ss 201 wire sections.
Tips:
- Use low heat to avoid cracking due to higher carbon content.
- Filler metals like 308L or 309L improve weld stability.
- Forming is straightforward; annealing enhances ductility for 201 Customized Length needs.
Our 201 steel wire is designed for easy processing.
