Medical-Grade 304 & 316L Precision Stainless Strips | Biocompatible & Implantable
Surgical-Grade Steel Strips for Implants, Instruments & Diagnostic Devices
Precision Meets Healthcare
When a single micron can alter a patient’s outcome, only the most exacting material will do. Our 304 and 316L precision stainless-steel strips are engineered, rolled, and surface-finished to tolerances tighter than industry standards, ensuring the reliability demanded by today’s most critical medical applications
304 Stainless Steel: Versatile Reliability
304 stainless steel excels in non-implant medical devices, leveraging:
– Corrosion resistance for repeated sterilization (autoclaves, chemical cleaners).
– Ease of fabrication for complex shapes (surgical scissors, forceps).
– Hygienic surface finish (easy to clean, non-porous).
Key Applications:
– Surgical instruments (scalpels, retractors).
– Diagnostic equipment casings (ultrasound probes, MRI components).
– Disposable medical parts (syringe barrels, test tube racks).
– Dental tools (handpieces, orthodontic brackets).
316L Stainless Steel: The Implant-Grade Gold Standard
316L—enhanced with molybdenum and ultra-low carbon—sets the bar for critical applications:
– Superior corrosion resistance in bodily fluids (blood, saliva) and harsh sterilants.
– Biocompatibility for minimal tissue reaction.
– Precision machinability for intricate designs (stents, implants).
Key Applications:
– Orthopedic implants (bone screws, joint replacements).
– Cardiovascular devices (stents, catheters).
– Dental implants and prosthetics.
– Surgical robotics and minimally invasive tools.
