Stainless Steel Wire 316LVM
316LVM stainless steel wire 1.4441 or 1.4441 IMPLANT is an austenitic stainless steel wire for medical applications. The material undergoes a specialist treatment called VAR or ESR that remelts the material which ensures the material is ferrite free. It offers good corrosion resistance especially against localised pitting from corrosion.
