Every WIREOPTIM spool of wire is precision wound via hands-off computerized machines, perfectly tensioned, and handled with care in a clean environment to ensure only the highest quality product lands in your hands. Say goodbye to tangles, oil, skin salts, and other debris or contaminants. Stainless Steel 316L wire has excellent general corrosion resistance, generally more resistant than 304. Stainless Steel 316L is an extremely-low carbon that minimizes harmful carbide precipitation from welding. Good oxidation resistance in intermittent service to 870 °C and in continuous service to 925 °C. Grade 316L is more resistant to carbide precipitation and can be used in the above temperature range. Typical applications include:
Applications:
Food Preparation Equipment (especially in chloride environments)
Chemical processing, equipment
Laboratory benches and equipment
Rubber, plastics, pulp & paper machinery
Pollution control equipment
Boat fittings, value and pump trim
Heat exchangers
Pharmaceutical and textile industries
Condensers, evaporators and tanks
Medical implants, including pins, screws and orthopedic implants like total hip and knee replacements
Specifications:
Shape:Â Flat (ribbon)
Rated for temperatures 1371-1399°C (2500-2550°F).
Heat Treatment: Annealed (soft)
Tensile Strength (Mpa) ≥ 480

Great wire!
I bought 3 spools of 316L (36g38g and .4x.1) and one spool of kanthal ribbon. The wire comes off the spool nice and clean which is fantastic. I found that the ribbon wire is pretty difficult to straighten (as compared to say Kidney Puncher) which is the only reason for 4 stars. I will definitely be purchasing round wire from LV again soon though!

Preferred over round wire
Resistance is higher that the round wire. Careful it will cut the heck of of your finger if you slip when using the wire notch on the spool. Still glad I tried it. 0.8 x 0.1.
