A wire rod is a hot rolled wire, which can vary in diameter, between 5.5 to 42 mm. It can be manufactured from various materials, depending on the requirements. Copper, Stainless steel, Carbon steel or Aluminum can be used to manufacture wire rods.

Timex Metals is a leading Stainless Steel wire rod manufacturer in India. Our Wire rods are of premium quality and excellent finish. We stringently evaluate the quality, durability, finish and various other parameters at each stage of production. We provide wires and wire rods which are extremely resistant to corrosion and high weldability.

Manufacturing process
Hot rolling billets on continuous rolling mills are used to produce wire rods. Shafts are used to remove it from heated metal. The shafts shape and compress the metal from all sides, transforming a thin, long cable from a single piece of metal.

Following rolling, the rod must be cooled. At the conclusion of the rolling mill, this wire is wound on a special winding to cool further. This process can be carried out in two ways: by air or through quick cooling. Air cooling happens naturally, as opposed ...
... to rapid cooling, which requires the use of special fans. Following cooling, the rod is ready to be stored.

Applications of Stainless steel wire rods
Stainless steel wire rods are used in a range of applications, including aviation, industrial, engineering, and reinforcing concrete constructions. Cold drawing, metal wiring, binding, fastener applications, and stainless steel wire mesh can all be done with HRAP wire rods.

Stainless steel wire is made primarily from stainless steel wire rods. Stainless steel wire is used to make downstream items such industrial fasteners, springs, medical and dental equipment, vehicle components, and welding electrodes.

We are also renowned as Stainless steel wire rod supplier and Stainless steel wire rod exporter, as we deliver our products to more than 60 cities nationally, and 30 countries internationally.

What is Stainless steel 316 wire ? 316 grade stainless steel is an austenitic form of stainless steel known for its 2-3% molybdenum content. The added molybdenum makes the metal more resistant to pitting and corrosion, as well as improving resistance when exposed to elevated temperatures.Similar to 304, Grade Stainless Steel 316 Wire has high amounts of chromium and nickel. 316 also contains silicon, manganese, and carbon, with the majority of the composition being iron. On the Brinell hardness scale Stainless Steel 316 Wire has a hardness of 217 and a Rockwell B hardness of 95. There are a few differences in mechanical properties between Stainless Steel 316 Wire . One of these differences lies in the tensile strength.Timex metals offers one of the finest quality Stainless Steel 316 Wire to different wire drawing factories around the globe.
