What is stainless steel wire
Steel wire is an extremely useful and versatile material that can be found in many things you use everyday in the home, as well as in the car you drive. Steel wire is also useful in commercial, industrial and military applications-for cleaning, for spring-loaded devices, for reinforcing, for structural integrity, and even for making music.
However, not every piece of wire can be used for everything. Steel wire is manufactured to different levels of strength, elasticity and thickness for different purposes. Here's a quick overview of some types of steel wire.

Stainless steel wire application
Stainless Steel wire is used for a wide range of applications such as wire for tyres, hoses, galvanized wire and strands, ACSR strands and armouring of conductor cables, springs, fasteners, clips, staples, mesh, fencing, screws, nails, barbed wire, chains etc. Electroplated steel is also widely used like copper plated wire for welding application.
The term steel wire is usually intended as carbon steel wire, but stainless steel and other alloys are used for many applications. Regarding carbon steel wire, the carbon content gives steel its strength and, higher the carbon content higher the tensile strength, but lower the malleability: this results in greater difficulties during the bending and forming process. Heat treatments help in these issues.
The application of an external plastic coating to a galvanized steel wire increases the corrosion resistance. In recent years, the development of a greater sensitivity to environmental issues led to the design of innovative processes for producing coated steel wire with a lower impact compared to the conventional processes.
