STAINLESS STEEL LOCKING WIRE
Malin Co. safety lock wire provides professional-grade security for critical motorsport fasteners, preventing hardware from backing out under intense track vibration and thermal stress. Manufactured from premium Type 302/304 stainless steel and annealed to ASTM A580 standards, this wire delivers exceptional corrosion resistance against race fuels, oils, and brake cleaners while remaining highly workable.
Available Sizes and Technical Specifications:
0.025 Inch (0.64 mm)
This size is ideal for small fasteners and tight-clearance assemblies such as switchboards, electronic linkages, and minor hardware. It provides a tensile strength of 75,000 to 95,000 PSI and yields approximately 596 feet per pound (app. 181 M).

0.032 Inch (0.81 mm)
The standard choice for general motorsport applications. It balances high strength with excellent flexibility, making it the default option for brake caliper bolts, oil filters, and oil drain plugs. It provides a tensile strength of 75,000 to 100,000 PSI and yields approximately 362 feet per pound (app. 110 M).
