Wire Grade resists corrosion in extreme environments.

Stainless steel wire grade, Sandvik Sanicro 36Mo, is nitrogen-enhanced, austenitic alloy that resists effects of corrosion in chlorides, H2S, and CO2 environments. Contents of chromium, molybdenum, and nickel contribute to resistance against pitting, and tensile strength for slicklines and logging cable lines are 270 and 300 ksi, respectively. Slickline products range from 0.082-0.125 in. dia,...

Steel Spring Wire retains mechanical properties.

Santex(TM) utilizes standard grade AISI 302 material that provides high fatigue resistance and low relaxation rate. Balanced addition of copper and aluminum makes spring material ductile, easy to form with good surface finish. Tensile strength and relaxation properties of wire can be increased with low-temperature heat treatment. Dimensions from 0.20-1.50 mm are available, with optional bright or...
