    2. A286 Wire Rod

    A286 Wire Rod

    Cres A286 is a precipitation hardening, austenitic stainless alloy used for high temperature strength and oxidation resistance. Alloy 286 Wire is manufactured by vacuum induction melting (VIM) and remelting Routes. This manufacturing processes ensures consistent metallurgical integrity of alloy A286 wires with regard to control of trace elements and physical purity of the wire surface. The final processed Alloy A286 wire is manufactured by special lubricant-free, roller-die forming followed by surface abrasion and cleaning processes. Alloy A286 Welding Wires in accordance with AMS 5804 / AMS 5805 are used to weld A286 base alloy on numerous turbine components including after-burners, turbine cases, wheels and blades, framework.


    Alloy A286 wire rods range from 5.5mm to 26mm and are supplied in various conditions like Hot Rolled, Annealed & Pickled. If needed, wire rods are also coated for better performance in drawing and packed in sea-worthy packing.

    A286 Spring Wire

    TorqBolt Stainless Steel Wire for Springs are manufactured having excellent mechanical properties (surface, cast & helix) manufactured under strict guidance of technical people, diameter from 0.19 mm to 1.20 mm in bright finish and 0.50 mm to 6.0 mm in matte finish (coated) in grade of AISI 302, 304 & 316, 321, Standard ASTM A313 and others.

    A286 Rope Wire

    TorqBolt Stainless Steel Wire for wire rope are manufactured having excellent mechanical properties, under strict guidance of technical people, diameter from 0.19 mm to 1.20 mm in bright finish and 0.50 mm to 6.00 mm in matte finish (decoated) in grade of AIS1304, 316,321 rope specs.
