Yes. Stainless steel wire is widely used in the production of high-protection, cut-resistant gloves, especially in work environments requiring high cut resistance, long service life, and safe contact with food, such as food processing, meat cutting, slaughterhouses, metal processing, glass handling, industrial safety, and manufacturing. Therefore, stainless steel wire is one of the important materials for professional protective gloves, especially cut-resistant gloves. Among them, 304 stainless steel wire and 316 stainless steel wire are the best material choices, and the wire diameter is usually selected between 30-100um. However, stainless steel wire cannot be used alone to make gloves, In general, stainless steel wire need to combine with Cotton, polyester, high-strength polyethene as complex yarns, then making gloves
As a professional stainless steel wire manufacturer, we offer high-quality stainless steel wires suitable for yarn textiles & braided media. These wires are especially ideal for producing protective gloves, including corrosion-resistant and cut-resistant gloves, as well as uniforms, safety wear, and other specialized textiles that require durability and reliable performance.
Our stainless steel wires are manufactured to strict quality standards, ensuring consistent diameter, high tensile strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life. We also provide customizable wire specifications to meet your specific production needs. Contact us today for detailed product information, free samples, and competitive quotations.
● Offers excellent cut and puncture resistance.
● Suitable for food processing and humid environments.
● Suitable for high-temperature or friction-prone conditions.
● Meets food-grade application requirements.
● More durable than fiber-based protective materials.
Hand protection plays a critical role in many industrial environments where sharp tools, metal edges, and heavy-duty operations are involved. Stainless steel wire is known for its high tensile strength, which allows gloves made from this material to effectively resist cuts and punctures. Compared with traditional textile or synthetic fibers, stainless steel wire provides a significantly higher level of protection in demanding working conditions.
Another key advantage is corrosion resistance. Stainless steel wire maintains its performance in wet, oily, or chemically exposed environments, making it suitable for food processing, seafood handling, and industrial manufacturing. In addition, stainless steel is non-toxic and hygienic, which is why stainless steel wire gloves are commonly used in food-grade applications where cleanliness and safety are essential.
Due to gloves is protect our hands and directly contact with our skin, it has a very strict requirements for stainless steel wire.
Material: the stainless steel wire must be Austenitic stainless steel, Stainless steel AISI 316L and 304 grade are always use for making gloves. And 316L grade contain Mo(molybdenum), which help strong the acid resistant of 316L, become this material the preferred choice for high-end gloves. Besides, Austenitic stainless steel is non-magnetic and has excellent toughness and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for long-term use and cleaning.
Physical form: It must be an ultrafine, high-strength microfilament.
Wire diameter: 30-100um
The wire within this diameter range provide effective cut-resistant and keep sufficient flexibility.
High Tensile Strength
Through a special cold-drawing process, it has extremely high tensile strength (usually exceeding 1000 MPa), which means that strong protection can be achieved with an extremely fine diameter, avoiding the stiffness caused by using coarse wire.
Surface Condition
The surface must be very smooth, clean, and free of burrs or defects, in case to abrasion of other fibers or discomfort to the hands during the weaving process.
Stainless steel wire almost never used alone, but rather as a component of composite yarns.
First, preparing a Core wire. Then a high-strength stainless steel fine wire is tightly wound around the core wire in a precise spiral shape, like winding a spring. The finished yarn is composite yarns, and twisted and plied with a conventional textile fiber, we can get the final composite yarns, now we can use it to knit gloves.
Stainless steel wire is widely used in textiles that require high strength, cut resistance, and durability. Its specific applications include:
● Protective gloves: Cut-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and heat-resistant gloves for food processing, meat cutting, and metal handling.
● Protective clothing: Safety jackets, aprons, and sleeves that provide resistance against cuts, sparks, and chemical splashes.
● Industrial uniforms: Heavy-duty workwear for factories, workshops, and chemical plants where durability and safety are critical.
● Specialized safety textiles: Mesh inserts for anti-puncture fabrics, high-performance liners, and reinforced sleeves for handling sharp or hazardous materials.
● Food and hygiene applications: Stainless steel wire fabrics used in gloves and protective gear that meet food-grade and sanitary standards.
By integrating stainless steel wire into woven or knitted structures, these textiles deliver reliable protection, long-lasting performance, and compliance with industrial safety standards.
Summary
Stainless steel wire, through a series of ingenious processes—"microfiberization → textile coating → high-gauge knitting → functional coating"—is transformed from a hard metal into a soft yet durable protective glove. This is an outstanding example of the integration of materials science, textile science, and ergonomics.
