304 Stainless Steel Medical Mandrel Wire

Material Properties

Stainless steel is the most commonly used material for medical device applications due to its versatility, corrosion-resistance, and cost effectiveness. Component Supply's stock of 304V stainless steel medical mandrel & wire is spring tempered, drawn, and straightened with a bright finish. It has been vacuum arc remelted to produce a more uniform chemistry with minimal voids and contaminants. 304V is an ideal material for non-implantable medical devices. 304V yields a more uniform chemistry with minimum voids and contaminants. It is strong and flexible, and it can be easily welded or soldered. This wire is supplied in lengths of 72" and 36" and is available in 0.001" increments for diameters ranging from 0.005" to 0.040". Please note: 304 is designated with a V (Vacuum Arc Remelted) for diameter sizes of 0.040" and down, but sizes larger than that may not be designated with a V. Material certificates are available for $10.

Custom Fabrication & Contract Manufacturing ▼

The fabrication division of Component Supply, CS Custom Fab, offers many secondary operations for 304V stainless steel medical wire. Based on customer drawings, capabilities include:

Cutting: precision, burr-free (standard +/- 0.005" tolerance)
Bending: to customer-specified bend radius; complex geometries
End Forming: bevel, conical grind, bull nose, chamfer
Welding: laser welding for assemblies
Flattening: according to customer drawing
Longer Lengths: lengths longer than 72" may be available in certain diameters

Consistent with our commitment to research and development, we keep order minimums low for both standard lengths and fabricated parts. Standard shop minimums generally begin at $150, but please contact us for a quote specific to your project"s use of 304V stainless steel wire. Round plastic storage tubes are available for organizing and safely storing straightened wire after it is cut.
