Stainless steel AISI 316L
Stainless steel cable ties are suited for heavy duty applications, in environments where the cable tie could be exposed to influences such as corrosion, vibrations, general wear, radiation or high temperatures. Cable ties of the AISI 316L quality offer better resistance to salt water corrosion than AISI 304 cable ties. The AISI 304 material is mostly used for standard applications, in normal environments where it is not exposed to salt water.
Both stainless steel qualities are available in both coated and uncoated versions. Coated cable ties offer strong insolation and protection, however, the downside is that the temperature range of the coated variant is much lower than that of the uncoated variant.
